How we handle kitchen sink repair in Talaton
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it typically needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We are often asked to fix chips in ceramic sinks and chipped door and drawer edges, in cabinet ends & plinths, composite sinks and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
- 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.
- We polish or seal the repair.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Questions from Talaton
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you fix kitchen doors?
Yes. We repair chips, dents and scuffs on most door finishes.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or hunting for a door that’s no longer made. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

What kitchen sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the sink or cupboard door, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
- Doors swollen by water
- Sinks cracked through the base
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
