Kitchen sink repair at your home in Ford
Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl generally need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. Typical jobs include dents and scuffs on cabinets and chipped door and drawer edges, across gloss and matt cupboard doors, vinyl-wrapped doors and cabinet ends & plinths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

How we price kitchen sink repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
What happens on the day
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by preparing the damage.
- Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
- We shape the repair to match the original.
- We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
- We polish or seal the repair.
Getting ready for the visit
