DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
How we handle kitchen sink repair in Ystalyfera
Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl typically need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. We are often asked to fix damage from fitting or moving appliances and dents and scuffs on cabinets, across gloss and matt cupboard doors, vinyl-wrapped doors and composite sinks.
We guarantee the work for a year. 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.

Common questions in Ystalyfera
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you repair cupboard doors?
Yes. Chips, dents and scuffs are repaired on gloss, matt and wood-effect doors.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently 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.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ystalyfera use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or finding a matching door that’s been discontinued. Repairing it keeps your kitchen as it is. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire sink or cupboard door, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
