Kitchen sink repair in Dorking without replacing anything
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl typically need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. Whether it’s chips in ceramic sinks and dents and scuffs on cabinets, we can help.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or finding a matching door that’s been discontinued. Repairing it keeps your kitchen as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
- Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
- We sand the repair to the original profile.
- The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
- Finally we polish or seal it.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What affects the price in Dorking
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Dorking. The price comes down to:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Dorking. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire sink or cupboard door
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

FAQs for Dorking
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can you repair a chipped Belfast sink?
Yes. We often repair chips on the rim, front and around the waste.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
