About our kitchen sink repair in Calton
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 generally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We regularly repair cabinet ends & plinths, vinyl-wrapped doors and gloss and matt cupboard doors, and the jobs we see most are chips in ceramic sinks and cracks around the waste.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Should you replace it?
A new sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or hunting for a door that’s no longer made. Repairing it keeps your kitchen as it is. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
How we price kitchen sink repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the sink or cupboard door, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
FAQs for Calton
Are there extra charges for Calton?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Calton included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Glasgow and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
