Kitchen sink repair in Altens without replacing anything
Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl usually need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. We work on composite sinks, cabinet ends & plinths and vinyl-wrapped doors, and people most often call us about chips in ceramic sinks and damage from fitting or moving appliances.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Altens: your questions answered
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area.
- Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
- We sand the repair to the original profile.
- We match the colour to the glaze or door.
- We polish or seal the repair.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Altens. The price reflects:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the sink or cupboard door, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
What we’re called out for in Altens
Dropped pans chip ceramic sinks, and cupboard doors get knocked by chairs, bins and vacuum cleaners.

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

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Why repair rather than replace?
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. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. 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.

- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- One price list for the whole UK
