Kitchen sink repair at your home in New Shildon

Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl generally need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Our technicians work on composite sinks, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and cabinet ends & plinths, and common reasons people get in touch are chips in ceramic sinks and cracks around the waste.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace in New Shildon?

A new sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or hunting for a door that’s 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. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Work done at your home or business

Take a look at our pricing.

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. 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. First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
  2. Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
  3. The repair is sanded to the original profile.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze or door.
  5. Finally we polish or seal it.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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 usually cheaper.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
  • Doors swollen by water
  • Sinks cracked through the base

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in New Shildon

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

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

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole sink or cupboard door
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
