Lower Higham: your questions answered
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Kitchen sink repair at your home in Lower Higham
We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it usually needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. Whether it’s dents and scuffs on cabinets and chips in ceramic sinks, we can help, on vinyl-wrapped doors, cabinet ends & plinths and composite sinks alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Lower Higham. The price reflects:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by preparing the damage.
- Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
- The repair is sanded to the original profile.
- We match the colour to the glaze or door.
- The repair is polished or sealed.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repairing versus replacing in Lower Higham
A new sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or finding a matching door that is been discontinued. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
