How we handle kitchen sink repair in West Craigs

Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it normally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Typical jobs include cracks around the waste and dents and scuffs on cabinets, across vinyl-wrapped doors, gloss and matt cupboard doors and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not 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.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

When to call us in West Craigs

Ceramic sinks chip when pans and crockery are dropped, while doors take knocks from bins, chairs and hoovers.

Clients generally contact us about:

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

Our hiring checklist

How it works

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean and prepare the damaged area.
  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. We polish or seal the repair.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Related advice

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

FAQs for West Craigs

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do you fix kitchen doors?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

We cover the entire UK, including West Craigs and the rest of Edinburgh. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to West Craigs from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
