Kitchen sink repair in Barbican Estate, done in place
We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it typically needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We are often asked to fix chips in ceramic sinks and chipped door and drawer edges, across vinyl-wrapped doors, gloss and matt cupboard doors and cabinet ends & plinths.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

How we price kitchen sink repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
If you’re in Barbican Estate and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Barbican Estate: your questions answered
Can you repair cupboard doors?
Yes. We repair chips, dents and scuffs on most door finishes.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you cover Barbican Estate?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Barbican Estate. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
- We shape the repair to match the original.
- We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
- Finally we polish or seal it.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price

Repairing versus replacing in Barbican Estate
A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or finding a matching door that is been discontinued. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
