How we handle kitchen sink repair in Great Leighs
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it generally needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. Our repair technicians work on vinyl-wrapped doors, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and composite sinks, and common reasons people contact us are damage from fitting or moving appliances and chipped door and drawer edges.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
