DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kitchen sink repair in Shotley Gate without replacing anything
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. Typical jobs include dents and scuffs on cabinets and chipped door and drawer edges, in composite sinks, gloss and matt cupboard doors and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

How we price kitchen sink repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your IP9 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Landlord and trade work in Shotley Gate
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
