About our kitchen sink repair in Hightae
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it typically needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We regularly repair cabinet ends & plinths, composite sinks and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are cracks around the waste and chips in ceramic sinks.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

How we price kitchen sink repair
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Hightae. What changes the price is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One picture of the whole sink or cupboard door
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Your questions about kitchen sink repair in Hightae
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you cover Hightae?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Hightae from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
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 pictures.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill chips and rebuild edges.
- The repair is sanded to the original profile.
- We match the colour to the glaze or door.
- The repair is polished or sealed.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
