Kitchen sink repair in Tendring Heath without replacing anything
We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl usually need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We are frequently asked to fix dents and scuffs on cabinets and cracks around the waste, across vinyl-wrapped doors, composite sinks and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

What kitchen sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the whole sink or cupboard door
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole sink or cupboard door, we can price the job without visiting.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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 pictures.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill chips and rebuild edges.
- We sand the repair to the original profile.
- The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
- Finally we polish or seal it.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
