Kitchen sink repair in Gelsmoor

How we handle kitchen sink repair in Gelsmoor

We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl usually need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. If you are dealing with chips in ceramic sinks and chipped door and drawer edges, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Choosing a repair company

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
  • Doors swollen by water
  • Sinks cracked through the base

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

  • Ceramic Belfast & butler sinks
  • Cabinet ends & plinths
  • Gloss and matt cupboard doors
  • Vinyl-wrapped doors
  • Composite sinks

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Gelsmoor. The price reflects:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Gelsmoor. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole sink or cupboard door

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or finding a matching door that’s been discontinued. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean and prepare the damaged area.
  2. Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
  3. We sand the repair to the original profile.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze or door.
  5. We polish or seal the repair.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
