Our hiring checklist

Kitchen sink repair at your home in Wilkieston

We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl usually need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We work on vinyl-wrapped doors, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and cabinet ends & plinths, and common reasons people contact us are chipped door and drawer edges and cracks around the waste.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Wilkieston: your questions answered

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Do you fix kitchen doors?

Yes. We repair chips, dents and scuffs on gloss, matt and wood-effect doors.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

What areas do you cover?

All of West Lothian, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do you cover Wilkieston?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Wilkieston and the rest of West Lothian. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wilkieston as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

If you manage property in Wilkieston, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What affects the price in Wilkieston

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Wilkieston. The price reflects:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

If you’re in Wilkieston and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or finding a matching door that is been discontinued. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by preparing the damage.
  2. We fill chips and rebuild edges.
  3. We sand the repair to the original profile.
  4. We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
  5. The repair is polished or sealed.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
