Kitchen sink repair at your home in Housham Tye
Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl usually need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Whether it’s cracks around the waste and dents and scuffs on cabinets, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

FAQs for Housham Tye
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CM17 postcode.

What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Why repair rather than replace?
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 keeps your kitchen as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Advice
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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What kitchen sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Housham Tye. What changes the price is:
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Most clients in Housham Tye get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
