Kitchen sink repair in St Ives without replacing anything
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl usually need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. Our repair technicians work on cabinet ends & plinths, composite sinks and gloss and matt cupboard doors, and the jobs we see most are chips in ceramic sinks and cracks around the waste.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to St Ives. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the sink or cupboard door, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area.
- Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
- The repair is sanded to the original profile.
- We match the colour to the glaze or door.
- The repair is polished or sealed.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Landlords, agents and businesses in St Ives
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cornwall and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
