How we handle kitchen sink repair in Low Common
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it normally needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. Common call-outs are for chips in ceramic sinks and cracks around the waste, across gloss and matt cupboard doors, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and vinyl-wrapped doors.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Low Common and across Norfolk. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Should you replace it?
A new sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or hunting for a door that is no longer made. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- 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.
What we work on

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire sink or cupboard door and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
