Horsley: your questions answered

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Horsley. Prices do not change with location.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Derby.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What does kitchen sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can a chipped butler sink be fixed?

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

Kitchen sink repair in Horsley, done in place

We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it generally needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. If you are dealing with chips in ceramic sinks and chipped door and drawer edges, we can typically put it right.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

What affects the price in Horsley

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole sink or cupboard door
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Horsley, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Horsley

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We clean and prepare the damaged area.
  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. Finally we polish or seal it.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or finding a matching door that is been discontinued. A repair keeps your kitchen as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
