Kitchen sink repair in Thorpe Cross, done in place

If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it typically needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. Common call-outs are for dents and scuffs on cabinets and chips in ceramic sinks, in composite sinks, cabinet ends & plinths and gloss and matt cupboard doors.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

FAQs for Thorpe Cross

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Send photos for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire sink or cupboard door

If you are in Thorpe Cross and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or hunting for a door that is no longer made. A repair keeps your kitchen as it is. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean and prepare the damaged area.
  2. We fill chips and rebuild edges.
  3. We sand the repair to the original profile.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze or door.
  5. The repair is polished or sealed.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the sink or cupboard door, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
