About our kitchen sink repair in Gateshead
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it usually needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. We work on cabinet ends & plinths, composite sinks and gloss and matt cupboard doors, and the jobs we see most are dents and scuffs on cabinets and chipped door and drawer edges.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 usually the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What affects the price in Gateshead
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
- Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
- We shape the repair to match the original.
- We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
- Finally we polish or seal it.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Get a quote
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the sink or cupboard door, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Questions from Gateshead
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Do you cover the whole of Gateshead?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Gateshead. Prices do not change with location.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
