About our kitchen sink repair in Inkerman

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 normally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. If you’re dealing with dents and scuffs on cabinets and damage from fitting or moving appliances, we can usually put it right, on gloss and matt cupboard doors, composite sinks and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks alike.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Inkerman and across County Durham. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Landlord and trade work in Inkerman

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Inkerman use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean and prepare the damaged area.
  2. Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
  3. We sand the repair to the original profile.
  4. We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
  5. The repair is polished or sealed.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole sink or cupboard door, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Inkerman questions

Can a chipped butler sink be fixed?

Yes. We often repair chips on the rim, front and around the waste.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Inkerman included. There is no extra charge for travel.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

How to compare quotes

How we price kitchen sink repair

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire sink or cupboard door

For a price in Inkerman, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or finding a matching door that’s been discontinued. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Inkerman. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

  • Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
  • Doors swollen by water
  • Sinks cracked through the base
