How we handle kitchen sink repair in Tiger Bay
We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl normally need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Our repair technicians work on composite sinks, cabinet ends & plinths and gloss and matt cupboard doors, and people most frequently call us about chipped door and drawer edges and chips in ceramic sinks.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

All of Cardiff, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

How we price kitchen sink repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
If you’re in Tiger Bay and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?
