Kitchen sink repair for Tŷ-rhiw homes

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

About our kitchen sink repair in Tŷ-rhiw

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. We work on cabinet ends & plinths, vinyl-wrapped doors and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, and common reasons people contact us are damage from fitting or moving appliances and dents and scuffs on cabinets.

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 dry the door edges after spills.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

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

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

Materials we work on in Tŷ-rhiw

  • Gloss and matt cupboard doors
  • Vinyl-wrapped doors
  • Cabinet ends & plinths
  • Composite sinks
  • Ceramic Belfast & butler sinks

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by preparing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
  3. We sand the repair to the original profile.
  4. The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
  5. Finally we polish or seal it.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Tŷ-rhiw: your questions answered

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What does kitchen sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What affects the price in Tŷ-rhiw

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Landlord and trade work in Tŷ-rhiw

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

What we’re called out for in Tŷ-rhiw

Dropped pans chip ceramic sinks, while doors take knocks from bins, chairs and hoovers.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Damage from fitting or moving appliances
  • Cracks around the waste
  • Chips in ceramic sinks
  • Chipped door and drawer edges

What to look for in a quote

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or hunting for a door that is no longer made. Repairing it keeps your kitchen as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We leave the room as we found it
