Trusted kitchen sink repair in Lathones

What we cannot put right

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 pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Kitchen sink repair in Lathones, done in place

Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it usually needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. If you are dealing with chipped door and drawer edges and dents and scuffs on cabinets, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Lathones and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole sink or cupboard door
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

If you are in Lathones and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Lathones questions

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you come to Lathones?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Lathones from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you fix kitchen doors?

Yes. We repair chips, dents and scuffs on most door finishes.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Lathones, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Should you replace it?

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. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
