Advice
How we handle kitchen sink repair in Ratho
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 you don’t need replacement parts. If you’re dealing with chips in ceramic sinks and dents and scuffs on cabinets, we can help.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Repairing versus replacing in Ratho
A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or finding a matching door that’s been discontinued. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
How we price kitchen sink repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole sink or cupboard door, we can price the job.
