About our kitchen sink repair in Gillingham

We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it normally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. If you are dealing with dents and scuffs on cabinets and cracks around the waste, we can usually put it right.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean and prepare the damaged area.
  2. We fill chips and rebuild edges.
  3. The repair is sanded to the original profile.
  4. We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
  5. The repair is polished or sealed.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Related advice

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gillingham as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or hunting for a door that is no longer made. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

  • Gloss and matt cupboard doors
  • Composite sinks
  • Vinyl-wrapped doors

Common questions in Gillingham

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
