Kitchen sink repair in Portchester without replacing anything
We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl generally need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We regularly repair ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, gloss and matt cupboard doors and vinyl-wrapped doors, and the jobs we see most are dents and scuffs on cabinets and chipped door and drawer edges.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Portchester and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Repairing versus replacing in Portchester
Replacing a sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or finding a matching door that is been discontinued. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of 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.

Portchester questions
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you come to Portchester?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Portchester and the rest of Hampshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How we price kitchen sink repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Portchester. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the whole sink or cupboard door
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire sink or cupboard door, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill chips and rebuild edges.
- We shape the repair to match the original.
- We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
- Finally we polish or seal it.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For anyone letting property in or around Portchester, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
