Kitchen sink repair in Thurlaston, done in place
We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl generally need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We work on cabinet ends & plinths, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and vinyl-wrapped doors, and the jobs we see most are cracks around the waste and chips in ceramic sinks.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Advice
What kitchen sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One picture of the whole sink or cupboard door
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Common questions in Thurlaston
How much does kitchen sink repair cost in Thurlaston?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your LE9 postcode.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
