Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Kitchen sink repair in Lower Porthpean, done in place
Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl normally need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. We work on ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, cabinet ends & plinths and gloss and matt cupboard doors, and people most frequently call us about damage from fitting or moving appliances and dents and scuffs on cabinets.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Lower Porthpean and across Cornwall. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
For anyone letting property in or around Lower Porthpean, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Why repair rather than replace?
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 leaves everything in place. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lower Porthpean. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why book with us
- One visit for most repairs
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- No extra charge for your area

How we price kitchen sink repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
- Doors swollen by water
- Sinks cracked through the base
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Cabinet ends & plinths
- Ceramic Belfast & butler sinks
- Vinyl-wrapped doors
- Composite sinks
- Gloss and matt cupboard doors
The process
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by preparing the damage.
- 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
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
