Kitchen sink & door repair in Merchiston, Edinburgh
Chip repairs to kitchen sinks, cupboard doors and cabinets in Merchiston, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips in ceramic sinks
- Chipped door and drawer edges
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- One picture of the entire sink or cupboard door
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Kitchen sink repair in Merchiston, done in place
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it generally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Whether it’s damage from fitting or moving appliances and dents and scuffs on cabinets, we can generally put it right, on vinyl-wrapped doors, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and cabinet ends & plinths alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Merchiston and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Should you replace it?
A new sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or hunting for a door that’s no longer made. A repair keeps your kitchen as it is. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
