Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kitchen sink repair in Higher End without replacing anything
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it normally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. Whether it’s damage from fitting or moving appliances and chipped door and drawer edges, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Why repair rather than replace?

Higher End questions
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you fix kitchen doors?
Yes. Chips, dents and scuffs are repaired on gloss, matt and wood-effect doors.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you come to Higher End?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Higher End from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What does kitchen sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your WN5 postcode.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire sink or cupboard door and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Landlord and trade work in Higher End
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
- Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
- We sand the repair to the original profile.
- We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
- Finally we polish or seal it.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole sink or cupboard door, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
