Kitchen sink repair in Eye, done in place
Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl normally need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. We are frequently asked to fix dents and scuffs on cabinets and cracks around the waste, across ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, cabinet ends & plinths and composite sinks.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. 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. A repair keeps your kitchen as it is. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Eye. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What kitchen sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Questions from Eye
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What does kitchen sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can a chipped butler sink be fixed?
Yes. We often repair chips on the rim, front and around the waste.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
