Kitchen sink repair in Portinscale, done in place
Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl usually need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. If you are dealing with damage from fitting or moving appliances and cracks around the waste, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Portinscale and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
