Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
About our kitchen sink repair in Rough Common
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it typically needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. We regularly repair ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, gloss and matt cupboard doors and vinyl-wrapped doors, and common reasons people get in touch are cracks around the waste 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.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire sink or cupboard door, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
How the visit works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- We start by preparing the damage.
- Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
- We shape the repair to match the original.
- We match the colour to the glaze or door.
- Finally we polish or seal it.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole sink or cupboard door, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Rough Common
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or finding a matching door that is been discontinued. A repair leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
