Kitchen sink repair in Heiton without replacing anything
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it normally needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Common call-outs are for chips in ceramic sinks and cracks around the waste, across cabinet ends & plinths, gloss and matt cupboard doors and composite sinks.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole sink or cupboard door, we can give you a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Your questions about kitchen sink repair in Heiton
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across the Scottish Borders.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do you cover the whole of the Scottish Borders?
The whole UK, including all of the Scottish Borders. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or hunting for a door that is no longer made. Repairing it keeps your kitchen as it is. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
