- Repairs from £95
- Damage from fitting or moving appliances

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Palterton. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Palterton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the entire sink or cupboard door
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
Most customers in Palterton get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Kitchen sink repair in Palterton without replacing anything
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. If you are dealing with dents and scuffs on cabinets and cracks around the waste, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. 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.

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

FAQs for Palterton
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.
Can you repair cupboard doors?
Yes. We repair chips, dents and scuffs on gloss, matt and wood-effect doors.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
