How we handle kitchen sink repair in Old Tame
Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl generally need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. If you are dealing with dents and scuffs on cabinets and cracks around the waste, we can typically put it right, on gloss and matt cupboard doors, vinyl-wrapped doors and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

How we price kitchen sink repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Old Tame. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

When to call us in Old Tame
Dropped pans chip ceramic sinks, while doors take knocks from bins, chairs and hoovers.

Should you replace it?
A new sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or hunting for a door that’s no longer made. A repair keeps your kitchen as it is. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Questions from Old Tame
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you come to Old Tame?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Old Tame from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
- Doors swollen by water
- Sinks cracked through the base
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Cabinet ends & plinths
- Vinyl-wrapped doors
- Ceramic Belfast & butler sinks
- Composite sinks
- Gloss and matt cupboard doors
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
