About our kitchen sink repair in Polruan

Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl usually need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. If you’re dealing with cracks around the waste and chipped door and drawer edges, we can help, on gloss and matt cupboard doors, composite sinks and cabinet ends & plinths alike.

You’re covered after we leave: 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?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or hunting for a door that’s no longer made. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How we price kitchen sink repair

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Polruan. The price reflects:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Most clients in Polruan get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We clean and prepare the damaged area.
  2. Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
  3. We sand the repair to the original profile.
  4. We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
  5. The repair is polished or sealed.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the area is dry
