Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in North Yorkshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
About our kitchen sink repair in Hovingham
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it normally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Whether it’s damage from fitting or moving appliances and dents and scuffs on cabinets, we can typically put it right, on vinyl-wrapped doors, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and cabinet ends & plinths alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Aftercare advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Hovingham questions
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you repair a chipped Belfast sink?
Yes. Chips to the rim, apron and around the waste are common repairs.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across North Yorkshire.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
- Doors swollen by water
- Sinks cracked through the base
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

How we price kitchen sink repair
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area.
- Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
- We sand the repair to the original profile.
- The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
- We polish or seal the repair.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
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, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
