Kitchen Sink Repair for Gwavas homes
Problem with your sink or cupboard door in Gwavas? We put it right where it is, mix the colour on the day and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Cracks around the waste
- Chipped door and drawer edges

Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
About our kitchen sink repair in Gwavas
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl normally need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. Whether it’s chips in ceramic sinks and cracks around the waste, we can help, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s 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.

For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or hunting for a door that is no longer made. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
When a repair is not the answer
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
- Doors swollen by water
- Sinks cracked through the base
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic Belfast & butler sinks
- Vinyl-wrapped doors
- Gloss and matt cupboard doors
- Composite sinks
- Cabinet ends & plinths

- We clean and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill chips and rebuild edges.
- We sand the repair to the original profile.
- The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
- Finally we polish or seal it.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

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.
