About our kitchen sink repair in Portesham
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it generally needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. Common call-outs are for chips in ceramic sinks and dents and scuffs on cabinets, on gloss and matt cupboard doors, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and composite sinks.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Portesham and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Landlord and trade work in Portesham
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
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.
