Kitchen sink repair in Magdalen Laver without replacing anything
We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it usually needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We are often asked to fix chipped door and drawer edges and chips in ceramic sinks, on gloss and matt cupboard doors, cabinet ends & plinths and composite sinks.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Vinyl-wrapped doors
- Cabinet ends & plinths
- Composite sinks
- Ceramic Belfast & butler sinks
- Gloss and matt cupboard doors
Landlords, agents and businesses in Magdalen Laver
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or finding a matching door that is been discontinued. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

How we price kitchen sink repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A photo taken from further back
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
