Kennington questions
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can a chipped butler sink be fixed?
Yes. We frequently repair chips on the rim, front and around the waste.

Kitchen sink repair in Kennington, done in place
We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl normally need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We work on ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, vinyl-wrapped doors and gloss and matt cupboard doors, and common reasons people contact us are dents and scuffs on cabinets and cracks around the waste.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Oxfordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
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. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. 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.

How we price kitchen sink repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 often lifts.
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.
