Kitchen sink repair near Puddle Dock

Kitchen sink repair at your home in Puddle Dock

We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it normally needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. If you are dealing with damage from fitting or moving appliances and cracks around the waste, we can help, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the sink or cupboard door, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Puddle Dock as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Honest limits

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Vinyl-wrapped doors
  • Ceramic Belfast & butler sinks
  • Gloss and matt cupboard doors

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
