Kitchen sink repair in Rucklers Lane

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Kitchen sink repair at your home in Rucklers Lane

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 generally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Our technicians work on ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, vinyl-wrapped doors and gloss and matt cupboard doors, and people most frequently call us about dents and scuffs on cabinets and chipped door and drawer edges.

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.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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. The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
  5. Finally we polish or seal it.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole sink or cupboard door
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your WD4 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
