How we handle kitchen sink repair in Tipton St John
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it generally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. If you are dealing with dents and scuffs on cabinets and chipped door and drawer edges, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Advice
Can I fix it myself?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Landlord and trade work in Tipton St John
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Devon and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or hunting for a door that’s no longer made. Repairing it keeps your kitchen as it is. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. 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 there are no surprises on the day.
