Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Settlingstones. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
If you are in Settlingstones and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Kitchen sink repair at your home in Settlingstones
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it usually needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. Typical jobs include damage from fitting or moving appliances and cracks around the waste, in vinyl-wrapped doors, cabinet ends & plinths and composite sinks.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area.
- Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
- We sand the repair to the original profile.
- The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
- The repair is polished or sealed.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?
