About our kitchen sink repair in Castletown
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it typically needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. Whether it’s chips in ceramic sinks and dents and scuffs on cabinets, we can generally put it right, on gloss and matt cupboard doors, vinyl-wrapped doors and cabinet ends & plinths alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

What affects the price in Castletown
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire sink or cupboard door
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or hunting for a door that is no longer made. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95.

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
