About our kitchen sink repair in Ley Green
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl typically need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We regularly repair gloss and matt cupboard doors, composite sinks and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are cracks around the waste and chips in ceramic sinks.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Ley Green: your questions answered
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you work in Ley Green?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Ley Green from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
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.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can you repair cupboard doors?
Yes. We repair chips, dents and scuffs on gloss, matt and wood-effect doors.
Repair or replace: which is better?
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 keeps your kitchen as it is. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How we price kitchen sink repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The material
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Most clients in Ley Green get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
- Doors swollen by water
- Sinks cracked through the base
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Cabinet ends & plinths
- Ceramic Belfast & butler sinks
- Gloss and matt cupboard doors
- Composite sinks
- Vinyl-wrapped doors
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill chips and rebuild edges.
- The repair is sanded to the original profile.
- We match the colour to the glaze or door.
- Finally we polish or seal it.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for 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 to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
