About Canterbury
Canterbury is in Kent. Book a date that suits you, and you’ll know when to expect us, so you are not left waiting in all day. Canterbury is one of 922 places in Kent we cover. Our jobs stretch from Canterbury to London (53 miles away).
All of CT1, CT2, CT4 and CT3 is covered. Local streets include Long Market, High Street and High Street St Gregorys, and we cover them all.

If you are just outside Canterbury, we cover Wincheap (1 mile south-west), Harbledown (1 mile west), Hales Place (1 mile north), Thanington (1 mile south-west) and Stuppington (1 mile south). Further out, we also cover Ashford (13 miles south-west), Margate (15 miles north-east), Dover (14 miles south-east), Folkestone (14 miles south), Ramsgate (15 miles east) and Whitstable (6 miles north-west). Being one of Kent’s larger places, Canterbury sees plenty of our work.

Kitchen sink repair at your home in Canterbury
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it normally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. Typical jobs include chips in ceramic sinks and chipped door and drawer edges, across cabinet ends & plinths, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and gloss and matt cupboard doors.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Repairing versus replacing in Canterbury
Replacing a sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or finding a matching door that’s been discontinued. Repairing it keeps your kitchen as it is. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Questions from Canterbury
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you repair cupboard doors?
Yes. Chips, dents and scuffs are repaired on most door finishes.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Canterbury
If you manage property in Canterbury, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
- Doors swollen by water
- Sinks cracked through the base
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Canterbury

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area.
- Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
- We shape the repair to match the original.
- We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
- The repair is polished or sealed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the whole sink or cupboard door
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
