Kitchen sink repair in St Nicholas without replacing anything
Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl normally need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. We work on gloss and matt cupboard doors, cabinet ends & plinths and composite sinks, and the jobs we see most are dents and scuffs on cabinets and chipped door and drawer edges.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How we price kitchen sink repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in St Nicholas, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or finding a matching door that is been discontinued. Repairing it keeps your kitchen as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Questions from St Nicholas
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
