Kitchen sink repair at your home in Higham

Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl normally need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. If you’re dealing with chipped door and drawer edges and dents and scuffs on cabinets, we can help.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

10 questions to ask before you book

What kitchen sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole sink or cupboard door
  • Details of any past repairs

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your DE55 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

A new sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or finding a matching door that is been discontinued. A repair keeps your kitchen as it is. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

What we can’t put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, it’s worth having it done properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. We start by preparing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
  3. The repair is sanded to the original profile.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze or door.
  5. Finally we polish or seal it.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
