Our hiring checklist

About our kitchen sink repair in Lower Dunsforth

Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl usually need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. Whether it’s chips in ceramic sinks and chipped door and drawer edges, we can usually put it right, on cabinet ends & plinths, vinyl-wrapped doors and gloss and matt cupboard doors alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

What affects the price in Lower Dunsforth

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Repairing versus replacing in Lower Dunsforth

Replacing a sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or hunting for a door that is no longer made. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Lower Dunsforth: your questions answered

Do you cover the entire of York?

All of York, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Do you come to Lower Dunsforth?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Lower Dunsforth for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you fix kitchen doors?

Yes. Chips, dents and scuffs are repaired on gloss, matt and wood-effect doors.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
  2. We fill chips and rebuild edges.
  3. We sand the repair to the original profile.
  4. We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
  5. Finally we polish or seal it.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
