Kitchen sink repair at your home in Hetton-le-Hole

If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it generally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Common call-outs are for dents and scuffs on cabinets and damage from fitting or moving appliances, in cabinet ends & plinths, gloss and matt cupboard doors and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

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

FAQs for Hetton-le-Hole

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire sink or cupboard door, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Before booking anyone

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We start by preparing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
  3. We sand the repair to the original profile.
  4. We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
  5. We polish or seal the repair.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
