Kitchen sink repair in Runfold 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 normally need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Whether it’s dents and scuffs on cabinets and cracks around the waste, we can help.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
- Doors swollen by water
- Sinks cracked through the base

Runfold questions
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you repair cupboard doors?
Yes. Chips, dents and scuffs are repaired on gloss, matt and wood-effect doors.
How we price kitchen sink repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- One picture of the entire sink or cupboard door
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Nearby, we also work in Bramingham (1 mile north-east), Icknield (1 mile east), Limbury (1 mile south-west), Marsh Farm (1 mile west) and Saints (1 mile south-west).

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Luton and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill chips and rebuild edges.
- We shape the repair to match the original.
- We match the colour to the glaze or door.
- We polish or seal the repair.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
