DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kitchen sink repair in Thorntree without replacing anything
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it normally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. If you’re dealing with cracks around the waste and damage from fitting or moving appliances, we can generally put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Honest limits

- Doors swollen by water
- Sinks cracked through the base
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic Belfast & butler sinks
- Composite sinks
- Gloss and matt cupboard doors
- Vinyl-wrapped doors
- Cabinet ends & plinths
Common questions in Thorntree
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is repairing better 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.
Can you repair a chipped Belfast sink?
Yes. We frequently repair chips on the rim, front and around the waste.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Can you repair cupboard doors?
Yes. We repair chips, dents and scuffs on most door finishes.

Should you replace it?
A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or hunting for a door that is no longer made. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. 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.

- We clean and prepare the damaged area.
- Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
- We shape the repair to match the original.
- We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
- The repair is polished or sealed.
How to prepare

What kitchen sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
