Kitchen sink & door repair in Blackford, Edinburgh
We travel to Blackford for chip repairs to kitchen sinks, cupboard doors and cabinets. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Kitchen sink repair at your home in Blackford
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 the kitchen stays as it is. We’re often asked to fix dents and scuffs on cabinets and damage from fitting or moving appliances, in composite sinks, gloss and matt cupboard doors and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

- We start by preparing the damage.
- Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
- We shape the repair to match the original.
- We match the colour to the glaze or door.
- Finally we polish or seal it.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire sink or cupboard door and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What does kitchen sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How we price kitchen sink repair
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Blackford. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
