How we handle kitchen sink repair in Tunstall

Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl typically need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. We’re often asked to fix dents and scuffs on cabinets and chipped door and drawer edges, across gloss and matt cupboard doors, vinyl-wrapped doors and composite sinks.

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.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tunstall as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Sunderland and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  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. The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
  5. The repair is polished or sealed.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage

Tunstall questions

Are there extra charges for Tunstall?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you work in Tunstall?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Tunstall and the rest of Sunderland. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire sink or cupboard door and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Repair or replace 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. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
