DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

How we handle kitchen sink repair in Lapford

If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it typically needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. We’re frequently asked to fix cracks around the waste and chipped door and drawer edges, on composite sinks, gloss and matt cupboard doors and cabinet ends & plinths.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We clean and prepare the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the chips and rebuild any 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

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

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

Can landlords book you?

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Our hiring checklist

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work 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.

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or finding a matching door that is been discontinued. A repair leaves everything in place. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
