Shawell questions
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair a chipped Belfast sink?
Yes. Chips to the rim, apron and around the waste are common repairs.
Are there extra charges for Shawell?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How we handle kitchen sink repair in Shawell
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it usually needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. If you’re dealing with dents and scuffs on cabinets and cracks around the waste, we can help.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

The process

- First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
- We shape the repair to match the original.
- The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
- The repair is polished or sealed.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

What else we do in Shawell
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
