What we can repair

Cabinets and cupboards

We can assess worn cabinet doors, damaged cupboard panels, loose fittings and other problems with kitchen units. Where the existing cabinetry can be repaired, we focus on a practical fix. If a part needs replacing, we can discuss the available options.

Doors, hinges and drawers

Common repairs include:

• Cabinet doors that hang crooked or do not close properly
• Loose, broken or worn hinges
• Drawers that stick, catch or come off their runners
• Drawer runners and other hardware that need replacement
• Door fronts that need adjusting, refitting or replacing

The right repair depends on the cabinet, the hardware and the condition of the surrounding area. We will check those details before recommending the work.

Benchtops and countertops

Scratches, chips, swelling and localised damage do not always mean the whole benchtop needs to be replaced. We can inspect the damage and explain what can be repaired, what may need replacing and what the practical limits are.

Water-damaged cabinetry

Cabinets under sinks and beside dishwashers can be affected by leaks and moisture. Signs include swelling, warping, soft panels or crumbling edges.

We can assess the affected section and discuss repair or replacement. Where the source of the water problem is clear, we will point it out so you can deal with it as part of the job or arrange the right specialist if it is outside our scope.

Kitchen touch-ups and finishing work

Some kitchens do not need a full renovation. They need the details finished or tidied up. Depending on the condition of the kitchen, this may include selected paint or finish repairs, filling minor damage, adjusting doors and hardware, or completing small items after other work.

If you are unsure whether your kitchen needs a repair, a refresh or a larger renovation, we can help you compare the options. You can also read about our kitchen refresh services, kitchen renovation services or contact us to discuss the job.

Repair, replace or renovate?

It is not always obvious from a photo what will last. A site visit lets us see the cabinet construction, the extent of the damage and any related issues. We will give you an honest view of what is worth repairing and what may be better replaced.

The cost depends on the work, materials and condition of the kitchen. We do not publish a fixed price because each repair is different. Ask us about a free, no-obligation quote before work starts.

Yes. We can assess doors that are loose, crooked, damaged or no longer closing properly. The repair may involve adjusting, refitting, repairing or replacing the door or its hardware.

Can you fix a broken kitchen drawer?

We can assess sticking, loose or damaged drawers and their runners. We will recommend a suitable repair or replacement after checking the drawer and cabinet.
