Trusted kitchen sink repair in Shotley Bridge

Kitchen sink repair at your home in Shotley Bridge

If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it typically needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. Our technicians work on composite sinks, gloss and matt cupboard doors and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, and people most often call us about chips in ceramic sinks and damage from fitting or moving appliances.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Shotley Bridge questions

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you repair cupboard doors?

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

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We clean and prepare the damaged area.
  2. Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
  3. We shape the repair to match the original.
  4. We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
  5. We polish or seal the repair.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Take a look at our prices page.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the sink or cupboard door, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What we can’t put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Gloss and matt cupboard doors
  • Composite sinks
  • Cabinet ends & plinths
