Kitchen sink repair at your home in Gaulby
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it usually needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. Common call-outs are for damage from fitting or moving appliances and dents and scuffs on cabinets, in cabinet ends & plinths, gloss and matt cupboard doors and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Leicestershire. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Landlord and trade work in Gaulby
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
