About our kitchen sink repair in St John's Chapel
We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it generally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Typical jobs include chips in ceramic sinks and cracks around the waste, across gloss and matt cupboard doors, cabinet ends & plinths and vinyl-wrapped doors.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Landlords, agents and businesses in St John's Chapel
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What affects the price in St John's Chapel
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

- What it’s made of, if you know
