About our kitchen sink repair in Pennington
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it usually needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Our technicians work on vinyl-wrapped doors, gloss and matt cupboard doors and cabinet ends & plinths, and the jobs we see most are cracks around the waste and chipped door and drawer edges.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

- Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
- The repair is sanded to the original profile.
- We match the colour to the glaze or door.
- Finally we polish or seal it.
How to prepare

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
