How we handle kitchen sink repair in Lewdown
We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl normally need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We work on gloss and matt cupboard doors, composite sinks and cabinet ends & plinths, and the jobs we see most are chipped door and drawer edges and dents and scuffs on cabinets.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

FAQs for Lewdown
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you cover Lewdown?
We do. We send a technician to Lewdown for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What does kitchen sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Landlord and trade work in Lewdown
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Devon and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
When we’d advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
- Doors swollen by water
- Sinks cracked through the base
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Lewdown

- The type of damage
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A photo taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Lewdown, and we will reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, and the work is guaranteed.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill chips and rebuild edges.
- We sand the repair to the original profile.
- We match the colour to the glaze or door.
- Finally we polish or seal it.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Make sure the area is dry
