Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Kitchen sink repair at your home in Sandside
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it generally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Common call-outs are for cracks around the waste and chipped door and drawer edges, in vinyl-wrapped doors, cabinet ends & plinths and composite sinks.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole sink or cupboard door
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
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 will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice
Sandside questions
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Cumbria. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
