Kitchen sink repair in Mill End without replacing anything
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it generally needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. Common call-outs are for dents and scuffs on cabinets and chips in ceramic sinks, in ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, gloss and matt cupboard doors and cabinet ends & plinths.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by preparing the damage.
- Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
- We sand the repair to the original profile.
- We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
- We polish or seal the repair.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage

- Doors swollen by water
- Sinks cracked through the base

Can I fix it myself?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 won’t last.
