Kitchen sink repair for Roby homes

Kitchen sink repair in Roby without replacing anything

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 the kitchen stays as it is. We work on vinyl-wrapped doors, composite sinks and cabinet ends & plinths, and common reasons people get in touch are chipped door and drawer edges and damage from fitting or moving appliances.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Our hiring checklist

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Liverpool and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

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

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What affects the price in Roby

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

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire sink or cupboard door
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Questions from Roby

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Do you cover Roby?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Roby for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What does kitchen sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your L36 postcode.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 normally cheaper.

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.

Should you replace it?

A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or hunting for a door that is no longer made. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
