Kitchen sink repair in Brackenlands without replacing anything
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl normally need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We’re often asked to fix chips in ceramic sinks and damage from fitting or moving appliances, on composite sinks, vinyl-wrapped doors and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What kitchen sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Brackenlands. What changes the price is:
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
How it works
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
- The repair is sanded to the original profile.
- We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
- Finally we polish or seal it.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire sink or cupboard door, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
