Our hiring checklist

Kitchen sink repair in Rusholme without replacing anything

We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it usually needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We regularly repair vinyl-wrapped doors, cabinet ends & plinths and composite sinks, and common reasons people contact us are chipped door and drawer edges and damage from fitting or moving appliances.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Repairing versus replacing in Rusholme

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

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.

What kitchen sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Rusholme. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

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

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We start by preparing the damage.
  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. We polish or seal the repair.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Get a quote

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Your questions about kitchen sink repair in Rusholme

Can you repair cupboard doors?

Yes. Chips, dents and scuffs are repaired on most door finishes.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you repair a chipped Belfast sink?

Yes. Chips to the rim, apron and around the waste are common repairs.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Landlord and trade work in Rusholme

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
