For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cowley as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How we handle kitchen sink repair in Cowley
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it generally needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. Whether it’s dents and scuffs on cabinets and damage from fitting or moving appliances, we can normally put it right.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Cowley and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or hunting for a door that is no longer made. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
- Doors swollen by water
- Sinks cracked through the base
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Cowley

How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by preparing the damage.
- Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
- We sand the repair to the original profile.
- We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
- The repair is polished or sealed.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Cowley questions
What does kitchen sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do you cover the whole of Oxfordshire?
Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.
Do you cover Cowley?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Cowley. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair cupboard doors?
Yes. Chips, dents and scuffs are repaired on gloss, matt and wood-effect doors.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire sink or cupboard door
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
