Kitchen sink & door repair in Shobrooke, Devon
We travel to Shobrooke for chip repairs to kitchen sinks, cupboard doors and cabinets. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Chipped door and drawer edges
- Damage from fitting or moving appliances
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Kitchen sink repair in Shobrooke, done in place
Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl typically need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. We regularly repair composite sinks, vinyl-wrapped doors and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, and people most frequently call us about cracks around the waste and dents and scuffs on cabinets.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Devon. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

What kitchen sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole sink or cupboard door
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your EX17 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Shobrooke: your questions answered
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Can you repair a chipped Belfast sink?

Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Shobrooke and the rest of Devon. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
