How we handle kitchen sink repair in Desborough
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it normally needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. If you’re dealing with chips in ceramic sinks and cracks around the waste, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What else we do in Desborough
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Desborough: your questions answered
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you come to Desborough?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Desborough from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you fix kitchen doors?
Yes. We repair chips, dents and scuffs on most door finishes.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
- Doors swollen by water
- Sinks cracked through the base
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Composite sinks
- Ceramic Belfast & butler sinks
- Gloss and matt cupboard doors
- Cabinet ends & plinths
- Vinyl-wrapped doors
How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
- We shape the repair to match the original.
- We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
- We polish or seal the repair.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
