How we handle kitchen sink repair in North Close

If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it usually needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. Common call-outs are for damage from fitting or moving appliances and chips in ceramic sinks, in cabinet ends & plinths, composite sinks and vinyl-wrapped doors.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean and prepare the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
  3. We sand the repair to the original profile.
  4. We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
  5. The repair is polished or sealed.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire sink or cupboard door
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you cover the entire of County Durham?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. 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.

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • 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 before booking.

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
