DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
How we handle kitchen sink repair in Eccles
We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl typically need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Our repair technicians work on cabinet ends & plinths, vinyl-wrapped doors and composite sinks, and the jobs we see most are chips in ceramic sinks and cracks around the waste.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Jobs in TD5 work the same way as everywhere else we cover. We regularly work on streets such as Eccles Main Street, Stable Park and Kirkfield and the roads around them.

Local landmarks in Eccles

For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole sink or cupboard door, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
- Doors swollen by water
- Sinks cracked through the base
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Composite sinks
- Vinyl-wrapped doors
- Ceramic Belfast & butler sinks
- Cabinet ends & plinths
- Gloss and matt cupboard doors
