Kitchen sink repair near Shirley

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

If you manage property in Shirley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

How we handle kitchen sink repair in Shirley

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 typically needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Typical jobs include dents and scuffs on cabinets and chips in ceramic sinks, across gloss and matt cupboard doors, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and vinyl-wrapped doors.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

When to call us in Shirley

Dropped pans chip ceramic sinks, and cupboard doors get knocked by chairs, bins and vacuum cleaners.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Chipped door and drawer edges
  • Chips in ceramic sinks
  • Cracks around the waste
  • Dents and scuffs on cabinets

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How your room will be protected
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work

Choosing a repair company

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
  • Doors swollen by water
  • Sinks cracked through the base

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Vinyl-wrapped doors
  • Cabinet ends & plinths
  • Gloss and matt cupboard doors
  • Ceramic Belfast & butler sinks
  • Composite sinks

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We clean and prepare the damaged area.
  2. We fill chips and rebuild edges.
  3. We shape the repair to match the original.
  4. We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
  5. Finally we polish or seal it.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No need to remove anything

Questions from Shirley

Do you fix kitchen doors?

Yes. Chips, dents and scuffs are repaired on gloss, matt and wood-effect doors.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you repair a chipped Belfast sink?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
