Kitchen sink repair in Davidson's Mains, done in place
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl generally need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We work on ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, gloss and matt cupboard doors and cabinet ends & plinths, and common reasons people get in touch are chips in ceramic sinks and cracks around the waste.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

What kitchen sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
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.
What a repair can’t fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
- Doors swollen by water
- Sinks cracked through the base
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Cabinet ends & plinths
- Composite sinks
- Gloss and matt cupboard doors
- Vinyl-wrapped doors
- Ceramic Belfast & butler sinks
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or hunting for a door that’s no longer made. Repairing it keeps your kitchen as it is. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
