Kitchen sink repair at your home in Clovenfords
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it generally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. If you are dealing with damage from fitting or moving appliances and cracks around the waste, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Related advice
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:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed 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, then guarantee it for a year.
Questions from Clovenfords
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Clovenfords included. Travel is included in the price.
Why repair rather than replace?
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. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
