Kitchen sink repair at your home in Calcot
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it generally needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. Whether it’s chipped door and drawer edges and dents and scuffs on cabinets, we can help.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

What affects the price in Calcot
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill chips and rebuild edges.
- We sand the repair to the original profile.
- We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
- Finally we polish or seal it.

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or hunting for a door that is no longer made. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Calcot
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Colour-matched on site

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Your questions about kitchen sink repair in Calcot
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Yes. Chips to the rim, apron and around the waste are common repairs.
Is it safe with children and pets around?

Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
