  1. We clean and prepare the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
  3. We shape the repair to match the original.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze or door.
  5. Finally we polish or seal it.

Advice

Kitchen sink repair at your home in Wilmington

Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl generally need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. Common call-outs are for cracks around the waste and damage from fitting or moving appliances, on composite sinks, cabinet ends & plinths and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

What kitchen sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For a price in Wilmington, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Our hiring checklist

Wilmington questions

Which areas do you work in?

All of Devon, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can a chipped butler sink be fixed?

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

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you fix kitchen doors?

Yes. We repair chips, dents and scuffs on most door finishes.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

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.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop 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 normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
