Kitchen sink repair at your home in Galashiels

If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it typically needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. Our technicians work on cabinet ends & plinths, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and vinyl-wrapped doors, and common reasons people contact us are cracks around the waste and damage from fitting or moving appliances.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Repair or replace in Galashiels?

Replacing a sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or finding a matching door that is been discontinued. A repair leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by preparing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
  3. We shape the repair to match the original.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze or door.
  5. The repair is polished or sealed.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

How we price kitchen sink repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
