Kitchen sink repair in Upperthorpe, done in place

If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it generally needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. We’re frequently asked to fix cracks around the waste and chipped door and drawer edges, on ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, gloss and matt cupboard doors and vinyl-wrapped doors.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Upperthorpe as everywhere else we work. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Upperthorpe questions

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Upperthorpe.

Can you repair cupboard doors?

Yes. Chips, dents and scuffs are repaired on most door finishes.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is there any odour?

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

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can a chipped butler sink be fixed?

Yes. We often repair chips on the rim, front and around the waste.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by preparing the damage.
  2. Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
  3. The repair is sanded to the original profile.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze or door.
  5. Finally we polish or seal it.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
