- We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
- The repair is polished or sealed.
Before we arrive

- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice
Kitchen sink repair at your home in Thornton
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 fix chips, dents and local damage. If you’re dealing with chips in ceramic sinks and chipped door and drawer edges, we can generally put it right, on ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, cabinet ends & plinths and composite sinks alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Landlord and trade work in Thornton
If you manage property in Thornton, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What affects the price in Thornton
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
If you’re in Thornton and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
- Doors swollen by water
- Sinks cracked through the base
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Gloss and matt cupboard doors
- Cabinet ends & plinths
- Ceramic Belfast & butler sinks
- Vinyl-wrapped doors
- Composite sinks
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or finding a matching door that is been discontinued. A repair leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
