How we handle kitchen sink repair in Burgh Muir
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl typically need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. If you’re dealing with damage from fitting or moving appliances and cracks around the waste, we can help, whatever the material.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Edinburgh. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

- Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
- We sand the repair to the original profile.
- We match the colour to the glaze or door.
- Finally we polish or seal it.
Before we arrive

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
FAQs for Burgh Muir
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do you work in Burgh Muir?
We do. Technicians travel to Burgh Muir from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A wider photo showing the entire sink or cupboard door
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Burgh Muir, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
