How we handle kitchen sink repair in Kip Hill

If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it typically needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. Whether it’s cracks around the waste and dents and scuffs on cabinets, we can help.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

10 questions to ask before you book

Work for landlords and builders

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 will fit around changeovers where we can.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or hunting for a door that is no longer made. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why Kip Hill clients choose us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No need to remove anything

Take a look at our full price list.

When a repair is not the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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 will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

What kitchen sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire sink or cupboard door
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole sink or cupboard door, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by preparing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
  3. We shape the repair to match the original.
  4. The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
  5. The repair is polished or sealed.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the area is dry

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Your questions about kitchen sink repair in Kip Hill

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you repair a chipped Belfast sink?

Yes. Chips to the rim, apron and around the waste are common repairs.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Kip Hill and the rest of County Durham. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
