What affects the price in Esh Winning
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire sink or cupboard door, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Kitchen sink repair at your home in Esh Winning
Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl generally need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. We regularly repair ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, composite sinks and gloss and matt cupboard doors, and people most frequently call us about chipped door and drawer edges and damage from fitting or moving appliances.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, 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.
- The repair is sanded to the original profile.
- We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
- Finally we polish or seal it.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
