Trusted kitchen sink repair in Swarkestone

What a repair can’t fix

We would 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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Kitchen sink repair in Swarkestone without replacing anything

Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl usually need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We’re often asked to fix chips in ceramic sinks and chipped door and drawer edges, on vinyl-wrapped doors, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and gloss and matt cupboard doors.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Your questions about kitchen sink repair in Swarkestone

Can you repair a chipped Belfast sink?

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

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Swarkestone.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean and prepare the damaged area.
  2. We fill chips and rebuild edges.
  3. We shape the repair to match the original.
  4. We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
  5. We polish or seal the repair.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Swarkestone. What changes the price is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
