When to call us in Selkirk
Ceramic sinks chip when pans and crockery are dropped, and cupboard doors get knocked by chairs, bins and vacuum cleaners.

Kitchen sink repair in Selkirk without replacing anything
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl usually need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We are frequently asked to fix chipped door and drawer edges and chips in ceramic sinks, across ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, cabinet ends & plinths and composite sinks.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
- Doors swollen by water
- Sinks cracked through the base
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or hunting for a door that is no longer made. A repair keeps your kitchen as it is. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
What kitchen sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Selkirk. The price comes down to:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole sink or cupboard door
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
