Kitchen sink repair near Longsight

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by preparing the damage.
  2. We fill chips and rebuild edges.
  3. The repair is sanded to the original profile.
  4. We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
  5. The repair is polished or sealed.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the area is dry

Advice

Kitchen sink repair at your home in Longsight

We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl generally need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We regularly repair vinyl-wrapped doors, cabinet ends & plinths and gloss and matt cupboard doors, and people most often call us about damage from fitting or moving appliances and cracks around the waste.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • 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’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

When to call us in Longsight

Ceramic sinks chip when pans and crockery are dropped, and cupboard doors get knocked by chairs, bins and vacuum cleaners.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Dents and scuffs on cabinets
  • Damage from fitting or moving appliances
  • Chipped door and drawer edges
  • Cracks around the waste

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • When it can be used again
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What aftercare is recommended

10 questions to ask before you book

What affects the price in Longsight

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole sink or cupboard door, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Longsight: your questions answered

Can you repair cupboard doors?

Yes. We repair chips, dents and scuffs on gloss, matt and wood-effect doors.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote. There is no obligation to book.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
