Kitchen sink & door repair in Shelthorpe, Leicestershire
Damaged sink or cupboard door in Shelthorpe? We repair it in place, match it on site and guarantee the work for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Chipped door and drawer edges
- Chips in ceramic sinks
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
About our kitchen sink repair in Shelthorpe
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl typically need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We’re frequently asked to fix chips in ceramic sinks and damage from fitting or moving appliances, in ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, gloss and matt cupboard doors and composite sinks.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
