Kitchen sink repair at your home in Tickham

Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl generally need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. Typical jobs include cracks around the waste and chips in ceramic sinks, in composite sinks, gloss and matt cupboard doors and cabinet ends & plinths.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Landlord and trade work in Tickham

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

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

What affects the price in Tickham

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A wider photo showing the whole sink or cupboard door
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
