Kitchen sink repair in Shottenden without replacing anything
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it normally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Our repair technicians work on ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, cabinet ends & plinths and composite sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are dents and scuffs on cabinets and chipped door and drawer edges.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Shottenden and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or finding a matching door that is been discontinued. Repairing it keeps your kitchen as it is. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How we price kitchen sink repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole sink or cupboard door
- Where you are, by postcode
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Kent and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill chips and rebuild edges.
- We sand the repair to the original profile.
- The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
- We polish or seal the repair.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
