Kitchen sink repair at your home in Eddleston
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl generally need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We’re frequently asked to fix chipped door and drawer edges and damage from fitting or moving appliances, on vinyl-wrapped doors, gloss and matt cupboard doors and cabinet ends & plinths.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Should you replace it?
A new sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or hunting for a door that’s no longer made. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What kitchen sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the entire sink or cupboard door
- What it’s made of, if you know
For a price in Eddleston, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What happens on the day

- First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill chips and rebuild edges.
- We shape the repair to match the original.
- We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
- Finally we polish or seal it.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
