Kitchen sink repair at your home in Shortacross
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it normally needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. We regularly repair gloss and matt cupboard doors, cabinet ends & plinths and composite sinks, and the jobs we see most are damage from fitting or moving appliances and chips in ceramic sinks.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How we price kitchen sink repair
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by preparing the damage.
- Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
- The repair is sanded to the original profile.
- We match the colour to the glaze or door.
- We polish or seal the repair.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
