We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl typically need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Typical jobs include chips in ceramic sinks and damage from fitting or moving appliances, in vinyl-wrapped doors, composite sinks and cabinet ends & plinths.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in High Dyke and across County Durham. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

High Dyke: your questions answered

Do you fix kitchen doors?

Yes. We repair chips, dents and scuffs on gloss, matt and wood-effect doors.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do you work in High Dyke?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to High Dyke and the rest of County Durham. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Are you accredited?

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in High Dyke

Rental properties take more wear, 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 pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by preparing the damage.
  2. Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
  3. We shape the repair to match the original.
  4. The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
  5. Finally we polish or seal it.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What kitchen sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
