Kitchen sink repair in Houghton without replacing anything
We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl usually need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We are often asked to fix chipped door and drawer edges and damage from fitting or moving appliances, on composite sinks, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and cabinet ends & plinths.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a 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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
If you are in Houghton and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
