Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kitchen sink repair at your home in Short Heath
We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl generally need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. Our repair technicians work on composite sinks, cabinet ends & plinths and vinyl-wrapped doors, and the jobs we see most are cracks around the waste and damage from fitting or moving appliances.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

What kitchen sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Short Heath. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the sink or cupboard door, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Repairing versus replacing in Short Heath

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

- Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
- We shape the repair to match the original.
- We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
- We polish or seal the repair.
