Kitchen sink repair for Sighthill homes

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean and prepare the damaged area.
  2. We fill chips and rebuild edges.
  3. The repair is sanded to the original profile.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze or door.
  5. We polish or seal the repair.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Kitchen sink repair in Sighthill, done in place

Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl usually need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. We’re frequently asked to fix cracks around the waste and dents and scuffs on cabinets, across composite sinks, vinyl-wrapped doors and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

How we price kitchen sink repair

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

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Questions from Sighthill

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

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

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Sighthill.

Do you fix kitchen doors?

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

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is it messy?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Repairing versus replacing in Sighthill

A new sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or finding a matching door that’s been discontinued. Repairing it keeps your kitchen as it is. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
