Kitchen sink repair in Chignall Smealy, done in place

We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it generally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Common call-outs are for chips in ceramic sinks and chipped door and drawer edges, in cabinet ends & plinths, composite sinks and vinyl-wrapped doors.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
  2. Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
  3. The repair is sanded to the original profile.
  4. The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
  5. The repair is polished or sealed.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What kitchen sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
