About our kitchen sink repair in Ilkeston
Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl usually need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. Our repair technicians work on cabinet ends & plinths, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and gloss and matt cupboard doors, and common reasons people contact us are dents and scuffs on cabinets and damage from fitting or moving appliances.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
