Kitchen sink repair in Slack Head, done in place
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl typically need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. Typical jobs include damage from fitting or moving appliances and dents and scuffs on cabinets, on ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, cabinet ends & plinths and gloss and matt cupboard doors.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What kitchen sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- One picture of the entire sink or cupboard door
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
Most customers in Slack Head get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
