Kitchen sink repair at your home in Stranraer
Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl normally need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Our repair technicians work on composite sinks, vinyl-wrapped doors and gloss and matt cupboard doors, and the jobs we see most are damage from fitting or moving appliances and chipped door and drawer edges.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 frequently lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What we’re called out for in Stranraer

FAQs for Stranraer
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.
Are there extra charges for Stranraer?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What does kitchen sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What affects the price in Stranraer
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A photo taken from further back
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Landlord and trade work in Stranraer
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stranraer as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

- 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.
