Kitchen sink repair at your home in Hogaland

Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl typically 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. Our repair technicians work on ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, vinyl-wrapped doors and cabinet ends & plinths, and people most often call us about cracks around the waste and chips in ceramic sinks.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

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 often lifts.

Hogaland: your questions answered

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you cover the whole of the Shetland Islands?

All of the Shetland Islands, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can a chipped butler sink be fixed?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What does kitchen sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

10 questions to ask before you book

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  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 match the colour to the glaze or door.
  5. We polish or seal the repair.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

What kitchen sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Hogaland. What changes the price is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire sink or cupboard door
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
