Landlords, agents and businesses in Penshaw

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Kitchen sink repair in Penshaw, done in place

Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl usually 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. Common call-outs are for chipped door and drawer edges and damage from fitting or moving appliances, on cabinet ends & plinths, composite sinks and vinyl-wrapped doors.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Sunderland. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

How we price kitchen sink repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Penshaw. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

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.

How to compare quotes

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by preparing the damage.
  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. The repair is polished or sealed.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
