About our kitchen sink repair in Ellesmere
Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl generally need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. We are often asked to fix dents and scuffs on cabinets and chips in ceramic sinks, on vinyl-wrapped doors, gloss and matt cupboard doors and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Ellesmere as everywhere else we work. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ellesmere. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- A picture taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
Most customers in Ellesmere get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Questions from Ellesmere
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
What does kitchen sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you repair a chipped Belfast sink?
Yes. Chips to the rim, apron and around the waste are common repairs.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy.
- 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.
- We match the colour to the glaze or door.
- The repair is polished or sealed.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
