Kitchen sink repair in Gilbert Street, done in place
Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl usually need re-wrapping or replacing; 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 chipped door and drawer edges and chips in ceramic sinks, in ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, cabinet ends & plinths and vinyl-wrapped doors.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
