How we handle kitchen sink repair in Old Shotton
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl typically need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We regularly repair cabinet ends & plinths, composite sinks and gloss and matt cupboard doors, and the jobs we see most are chipped door and drawer edges and chips in ceramic sinks.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by preparing the damage.
- Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
- We shape the repair to match the original.
- The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
- The repair is polished or sealed.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SR8 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or finding a matching door that’s been discontinued. A repair leaves everything in place. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- One visit for most repairs
- Everything repaired in place
- Work done at your home or business

How we price kitchen sink repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the entire sink or cupboard door
If you are in Old Shotton and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
