The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
  2. Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
  3. We sand the repair to the original profile.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze or door.
  5. Finally we polish or seal it.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can

How we handle kitchen sink repair in Tunstall

If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it normally needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. Typical jobs include chips in ceramic sinks and damage from fitting or moving appliances, across vinyl-wrapped doors, gloss and matt cupboard doors and composite sinks.

We guarantee the work for a year. 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.

How we price kitchen sink repair

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

  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the whole sink or cupboard door
  • Where you are, by postcode

Most customers in Tunstall get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Repairing versus replacing in Tunstall

A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or finding a matching door that’s been discontinued. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One visit for most repairs

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
