Kitchen sink repair at your home in Kennington
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it generally needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. We regularly repair composite sinks, vinyl-wrapped doors and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are chips in ceramic sinks and chipped door and drawer edges.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by preparing the damage.
- Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
- The repair is sanded to the original profile.
- We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
- Finally we polish or seal it.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire sink or cupboard door, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Kennington questions
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you repair cupboard doors?
Yes. We repair chips, dents and scuffs on most door finishes.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you repair a chipped Belfast sink?
Yes. Chips to the rim, apron and around the waste are common repairs.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole sink or cupboard door and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you come to Kennington?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Kennington. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or hunting for a door that is no longer made. A repair leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. 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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Kennington. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
