Kitchen sink repair near Thorpe Hamlet

About our kitchen sink repair in Thorpe Hamlet

Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl normally need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. We work on vinyl-wrapped doors, composite sinks and cabinet ends & plinths, and the jobs we see most are chipped door and drawer edges and chips in ceramic sinks.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
  • Doors swollen by water
  • Sinks cracked through the base

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Repairing versus replacing in Thorpe Hamlet

A new sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or finding a matching door that is been discontinued. A repair leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Thorpe Hamlet

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the entire sink or cupboard door
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NR1 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
