  2. Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
  3. The repair is sanded to the original profile.
  4. The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
  5. We polish or seal the repair.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

About our kitchen sink repair in Thornborough

Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl normally need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. If you’re dealing with chipped door and drawer edges and damage from fitting or moving appliances, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Thornborough: your questions answered

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole sink or cupboard door and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can a chipped butler sink be fixed?

Yes. Chips to the rim, apron and around the waste are common repairs.

Can you repair cupboard doors?

Yes. We repair chips, dents and scuffs on gloss, matt and wood-effect doors.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What kitchen sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Common problems we fix in Thornborough

Ceramic sinks chip when pans and crockery are dropped, and cupboard doors get knocked by chairs, bins and vacuum cleaners.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chips in ceramic sinks
  • Chipped door and drawer edges
  • Cracks around the waste
  • Dents and scuffs on cabinets

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How soon you can use it again
