Kitchen sink repair in Merley without replacing anything
We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl normally need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We work on cabinet ends & plinths, gloss and matt cupboard doors and composite sinks, and the jobs we see most are chipped door and drawer edges and cracks around the waste.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Merley as everywhere else we work. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Gloss and matt cupboard doors
- Ceramic Belfast & butler sinks
- Composite sinks
- Vinyl-wrapped doors
- Cabinet ends & plinths
What kitchen sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Merley. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire sink or cupboard door
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or hunting for a door that’s no longer made. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Merley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
