About our kitchen sink repair in North Leith
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it normally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. We’re often asked to fix dents and scuffs on cabinets and damage from fitting or moving appliances, in vinyl-wrapped doors, gloss and matt cupboard doors and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

What else we do in North Leith
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What kitchen sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the whole sink or cupboard door
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
