How we handle kitchen sink repair in Stony Heap
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it generally needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. Whether it’s damage from fitting or moving appliances and chipped door and drawer edges, we can help, whatever the material.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Stony Heap as everywhere else we work. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

What kitchen sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire sink or cupboard door
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
