About our kitchen sink repair in Spring Cottage
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it normally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Whether it’s cracks around the waste and chips in ceramic sinks, we can usually put it right.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Spring Cottage and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Questions from Spring Cottage
Can you repair cupboard doors?
Yes. Chips, dents and scuffs are repaired on gloss, matt and wood-effect doors.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Are there extra charges for Spring Cottage?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What happens on the day
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill chips and rebuild edges.
- The repair is sanded to the original profile.
- The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
- The repair is polished or sealed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

When a repair is not the answer

Landlord and trade work in Spring Cottage
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Repairing versus replacing in Spring Cottage
A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or hunting for a door that’s no longer made. Repairing it keeps your kitchen as it is. Prices start from £95. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
