How it works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
  2. Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
  3. The repair is sanded to the original profile.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze or door.
  5. We polish or seal the repair.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

Kitchen sink repair at your home in Islip

We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl usually need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We work on vinyl-wrapped doors, gloss and matt cupboard doors and cabinet ends & plinths, and common reasons people contact us are cracks around the waste and chips in ceramic sinks.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not 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.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Islip: your questions answered

Can you repair cupboard doors?

Yes. We repair chips, dents and scuffs on most door finishes.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Landlord and trade work in Islip

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

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.

What we cannot put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or finding a matching door that’s been discontinued. A repair leaves everything in place. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
