Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Shield Row. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- The material
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
How we handle kitchen sink repair in Shield Row
We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it generally needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. We regularly repair composite sinks, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and vinyl-wrapped doors, and the jobs we see most are chips in ceramic sinks and chipped door and drawer edges.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by preparing the damage.
- We fill chips and rebuild edges.
- The repair is sanded to the original profile.
- The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
- Finally we polish or seal it.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Your questions about kitchen sink repair in Shield Row
Can you repair a chipped Belfast sink?
Yes. Chips to the rim, apron and around the waste are common repairs.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole sink or cupboard door and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
- Doors swollen by water
- Sinks cracked through the base
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Composite sinks
- Gloss and matt cupboard doors
- Vinyl-wrapped doors
- Ceramic Belfast & butler sinks
- Cabinet ends & plinths
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
