About our kitchen sink repair in St John Street area
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it typically needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. If you’re dealing with chipped door and drawer edges and cracks around the waste, we can help, on ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, cabinet ends & plinths and composite sinks alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t 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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
