Kitchen sink repair at your home in Balfour
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it typically needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. If you’re dealing with dents and scuffs on cabinets and chips in ceramic sinks, we can generally put it right.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

How we price kitchen sink repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Balfour. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.

Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
- Doors swollen by water
- Sinks cracked through the base

- Vinyl-wrapped doors
- Ceramic Belfast & butler sinks

- Composite sinks
Why repair rather than replace?
A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or hunting for a door that’s no longer made. Repairing it keeps your kitchen as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
