Kitchen sink repair in Oval without replacing anything

If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it typically needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Common call-outs are for dents and scuffs on cabinets and chips in ceramic sinks, in vinyl-wrapped doors, composite sinks and gloss and matt cupboard doors.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

  3. We sand the repair to the original profile.
  4. The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
  5. We polish or seal the repair.

Questions from Oval

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Our hiring checklist

What kitchen sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Oval. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
  • Doors swollen by water
  • Sinks cracked through the base

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Ceramic Belfast & butler sinks
  • Gloss and matt cupboard doors
  • Cabinet ends & plinths
  • Vinyl-wrapped doors
  • Composite sinks

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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 usually the cheaper route.
