Kitchen sink repair in Kelso without replacing anything

Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl generally 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. If you are dealing with cracks around the waste and chips in ceramic sinks, we can help.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Kelso questions

Do you work in Kelso?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Kelso for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

What information do you need?

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

Do you cover the whole of the Scottish Borders?

Everywhere in the UK, Kelso included. Travel is included in the price.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean and prepare the damaged area.
  2. We fill chips and rebuild edges.
  3. We sand the repair to the original profile.
  4. The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
  5. The repair is polished or sealed.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Related advice

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace in Kelso?

Replacing a sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or finding a matching door that is been discontinued. Repairing it keeps your kitchen as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

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.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

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

What affects the price in Kelso

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

When to call us in Kelso

Ceramic sinks chip when pans and crockery are dropped, and cupboard doors get knocked by chairs, bins and vacuum cleaners.

Look out for these signs:

  • Cracks around the waste
  • Damage from fitting or moving appliances
  • Dents and scuffs on cabinets
  • Chipped door and drawer edges
