When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

About our kitchen sink repair in Kentrigg

Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl typically 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. Whether it’s damage from fitting or moving appliances and dents and scuffs on cabinets, we can help, on vinyl-wrapped doors, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and cabinet ends & plinths alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

The process

On the day, 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 are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by preparing the damage.
  2. We fill chips and rebuild edges.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

Should you replace it?

A new sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or finding a matching door that’s been discontinued. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Kentrigg, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

How to compare quotes

Common questions in Kentrigg

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

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

What does kitchen sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you repair a chipped Belfast sink?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

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

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

Which areas do you work in?

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

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
