How we handle kitchen sink repair in White-le-Head

We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl typically need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. If you are dealing with chipped door and drawer edges and cracks around the waste, we can usually put it right.

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.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Common problems we fix in White-le-Head

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

Common reasons people in White-le-Head contact us are:

  • Damage from fitting or moving appliances
  • Dents and scuffs on cabinets
  • Cracks around the waste
  • Chipped door and drawer edges

Comparing quotes

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How to care for the finish

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
  2. Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
  3. We shape the repair to match the original.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze or door.
  5. The repair is polished or sealed.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can
