DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Kitchen sink repair at your home in New Mills
Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl typically need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. We regularly repair cabinet ends & plinths, vinyl-wrapped doors and gloss and matt cupboard doors, and common reasons people get in touch are damage from fitting or moving appliances and chipped door and drawer edges.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Your questions about kitchen sink repair in New Mills
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in New Mills.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Cornwall, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in New Mills as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
- Doors swollen by water
- Sinks cracked through the base
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Cabinet ends & plinths
- Ceramic Belfast & butler sinks
- Vinyl-wrapped doors
- Gloss and matt cupboard doors
- Composite sinks
What kitchen sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One picture of the whole sink or cupboard door
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Most customers in New Mills get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Repairing versus replacing in New Mills

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
