How we handle kitchen sink repair in Gatehouse of Fleet

We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it usually needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Whether it’s cracks around the waste and dents and scuffs on cabinets, we can help, on vinyl-wrapped doors, cabinet ends & plinths and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks alike.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dumfries and Galloway. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

What affects the price in Gatehouse of Fleet

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
  2. Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
  3. We shape the repair to match the original.
  4. The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
  5. The repair is polished or sealed.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
