Thornaby-on-Tees questions
I’m a tenant. Can you help?

What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you repair cupboard doors?
Yes. We repair chips, dents and scuffs on gloss, matt and wood-effect doors.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire sink or cupboard door and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How do I get a price for kitchen sink repair in Thornaby-on-Tees?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Kitchen sink repair in Thornaby-on-Tees without replacing anything
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it usually needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Whether it’s dents and scuffs on cabinets and cracks around the waste, we can help.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
