Kitchen sink repair for Hillside homes

Kitchen sink repair in Hillside, done in place

Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl generally need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. If you’re dealing with chips in ceramic sinks and damage from fitting or moving appliances, we can help.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Work for landlords and builders

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

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hillside use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Can I fix it myself?

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, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Hillside: your questions answered

Can you repair a chipped Belfast sink?

Yes. We often repair chips on the rim, front and around the waste.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Are you accredited?

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

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What a repair cannot fix

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Gloss and matt cupboard doors

10 questions to ask before you book

Why repair rather than replace?

A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or finding a matching door that’s been discontinued. A repair leaves everything in place. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Hillside. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Read our prices page.

What affects the price in Hillside

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by preparing the damage.
  2. Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
