Kitchen sink repair near Thurlby

Why repair rather than replace?

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. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Kitchen sink repair in Thurlby without replacing anything

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. Our technicians work on cabinet ends & plinths, vinyl-wrapped doors and gloss and matt cupboard doors, and common reasons people get in touch are chipped door and drawer edges and dents and scuffs on cabinets.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 will not last.

What affects the price in Thurlby

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
