About our kitchen sink repair in Scotland Street
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 the kitchen stays as it is. We regularly repair composite sinks, gloss and matt cupboard doors and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are dents and scuffs on cabinets and chipped door and drawer edges.
Somewhere like Scotland Street, kitchens in older homes often have features worth keeping. Repairing damage keeps the kitchen as it is.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or hunting for a door that’s no longer made. A repair keeps your kitchen as it is. Replacement in Scotland Street means trades, travel and waste removal, while kitchen sink repair is one trip.
Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, 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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Once we are there, the kitchen sink repair works exactly as anywhere else.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area.
- Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
- We sand the repair to the original profile.
- We match the colour to the glaze or door.
- The repair is polished or sealed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
