Kitchen sink repair near Sowton

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How we handle kitchen sink repair in Sowton

Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl usually need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We work on composite sinks, vinyl-wrapped doors and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are chipped door and drawer edges and cracks around the waste.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sowton

For anyone letting property in or around Sowton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sowton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by preparing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
  3. We sand the repair to the original profile.
  4. We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
  5. The repair is polished or sealed.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Open a window if you can

What affects the price in Sowton

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the sink or cupboard door, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or hunting for a door that is no longer made. A repair keeps your kitchen as it is. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Sowton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Questions from Sowton

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

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

Do you come to Sowton?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Sowton. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can a chipped butler sink be fixed?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Is the work guaranteed?

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