Advice
Kitchen sink repair in Carlton, done in place
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 usually needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. Whether it’s chips in ceramic sinks and dents and scuffs on cabinets, we can help.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

What kitchen sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Carlton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the whole sink or cupboard door
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
- Doors swollen by water
- Sinks cracked through the base
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Carlton: your questions answered
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you repair a chipped Belfast sink?
Yes. Chips to the rim, apron and around the waste are common repairs.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Carlton, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Should you replace it?
A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or finding a matching door that’s been discontinued. A repair leaves everything in place. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
