Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How we handle kitchen sink repair in Carnkie
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it normally needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. Common call-outs are for chips in ceramic sinks and dents and scuffs on cabinets, across vinyl-wrapped doors, gloss and matt cupboard doors and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Carnkie and across Cornwall. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
