When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Kitchen sink repair at your home in Stanhope

If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it normally needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. We are frequently asked to fix chipped door and drawer edges and chips in ceramic sinks, across vinyl-wrapped doors, gloss and matt cupboard doors and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Landlord and trade work in Stanhope

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in County Durham and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Your questions about kitchen sink repair in Stanhope

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Do you cover Stanhope?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Stanhope from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
  2. Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
  3. We shape the repair to match the original.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze or door.
  5. The repair is polished or sealed.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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, then guarantee it for a year.
