10 questions to ask before booking

Kitchen sink repair in Smeatharpe, done in place

If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it usually needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. Common call-outs are for chipped door and drawer edges and cracks around the waste, across vinyl-wrapped doors, gloss and matt cupboard doors and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by preparing the damage.
  2. Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
  3. The repair is sanded to the original profile.
  4. The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
  5. Finally we polish or seal it.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How we price kitchen sink repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Smeatharpe. What changes the price is:

  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One picture of the whole sink or cupboard door
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Your questions about kitchen sink repair in Smeatharpe

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you repair a chipped Belfast sink?

Yes. We frequently repair chips on the rim, front and around the waste.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or finding a matching door that is been discontinued. A repair keeps your kitchen as it is. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
