Kitchen sink repair in Steeple without replacing anything
We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl generally need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. Whether it’s cracks around the waste and dents and scuffs on cabinets, we can help, on cabinet ends & plinths, vinyl-wrapped doors and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Steeple and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repairing versus replacing in Steeple
A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or hunting for a door that is no longer made. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Your questions about kitchen sink repair in Steeple
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Are there extra charges for Steeple?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Steeple. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Steeple
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
