Kitchen sink repair at your home in Longhope
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it usually needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Typical jobs include cracks around the waste and chips in ceramic sinks, on composite sinks, vinyl-wrapped doors and gloss and matt cupboard doors.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or hunting for a door that’s no longer made. Repairing it keeps your kitchen as it is. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Longhope. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

FAQs for Longhope
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you repair a chipped Belfast sink?
Yes. We frequently repair chips on the rim, front and around the waste.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is repairing better 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.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so Longhope is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- 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 will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic Belfast & butler sinks
- Cabinet ends & plinths
- Composite sinks
- Gloss and matt cupboard doors
- Vinyl-wrapped doors
