Kitchen sink repair in Fornham St Martin without replacing anything
We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl usually need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. Common call-outs are for chipped door and drawer edges and chips in ceramic sinks, across vinyl-wrapped doors, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and cabinet ends & plinths.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

What kitchen sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
- Doors swollen by water
- Sinks cracked through the base
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Vinyl-wrapped doors
- Ceramic Belfast & butler sinks
- Gloss and matt cupboard doors
- Composite sinks
- Cabinet ends & plinths
