We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • 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 will tell you honestly.

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

Kitchen sink repair in Hinxton, done in place

Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl generally need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. We work on vinyl-wrapped doors, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and gloss and matt cupboard doors, and the jobs we see most are chips in ceramic sinks and cracks around the waste.

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

10 questions to ask before you book

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
  2. We fill chips and rebuild 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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Hinxton questions

Do you work in Hinxton?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Hinxton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Can you repair a chipped Belfast sink?

Yes. Chips to the rim, apron and around the waste are common repairs.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
