Kitchen sink repair in Instow 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 fix chips, dents and local damage. Whether it’s damage from fitting or moving appliances and chips in ceramic sinks, we can help, on composite sinks, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and cabinet ends & plinths alike.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

FAQs for Instow
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you come to Instow?
We do. Technicians travel to Instow from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
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.
How we price kitchen sink repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your EX39 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
