DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Kitchen sink repair at your home in The Platt
Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl typically need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. We regularly repair cabinet ends & plinths, composite sinks and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, and common reasons people contact us are damage from fitting or moving appliances and dents and scuffs on cabinets.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.
