What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

How we handle kitchen sink repair in Newlands

Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl typically need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. If you’re dealing with chips in ceramic sinks and dents and scuffs on cabinets, we can generally put it right.

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

Choosing a repair company

Should you replace it?

Replacing a sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or finding a matching door that’s been discontinued. A repair leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean and prepare the damaged area.
  2. We fill chips and rebuild edges.
  3. We sand the repair to the original profile.
  4. The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
  5. Finally we polish or seal it.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access

Newlands questions

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can you repair a chipped Belfast sink?

Yes. Chips to the rim, apron and around the waste are common repairs.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you come to Newlands?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Newlands from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How we price kitchen sink repair

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Landlord and trade work in Newlands

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For anyone letting property in or around Newlands, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
