Kitchen sink repair for Kinninvie homes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How we handle kitchen sink repair in Kinninvie

We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it typically needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. Whether it’s cracks around the waste and damage from fitting or moving appliances, we can help, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace in Kinninvie?

A new 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. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

  • Work done at your home or business
  • No need to remove anything
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Read our pricing.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match

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

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
