Trusted kitchen sink repair in Portway

How we handle kitchen sink repair in Portway

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 do not need replacement parts. Whether it’s dents and scuffs on cabinets and damage from fitting or moving appliances, we can help, on cabinet ends & plinths, gloss and matt cupboard doors and composite sinks alike.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

10 questions to ask before you book

Portway: your questions answered

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you cover the whole of Dorset?

Everywhere in the UK, Portway included. There is no extra charge for travel.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Portway.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Portway

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How we price kitchen sink repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean and prepare the damaged area.
  2. We fill chips and rebuild edges.
  3. We shape the repair to match the original.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze or door.
  5. Finally we polish or seal it.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
