Kitchen sink repair at your home in Gulval
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it generally needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. We regularly repair gloss and matt cupboard doors, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and composite sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are chipped door and drawer edges and chips in ceramic sinks.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
- Doors swollen by water
- Sinks cracked through the base
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Vinyl-wrapped doors
- Cabinet ends & plinths
- Composite sinks
- Ceramic Belfast & butler sinks
- Gloss and matt cupboard doors
Should you replace it?
A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or hunting for a door that is no longer made. A repair keeps your kitchen as it is. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How we price kitchen sink repair
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
