Kitchen sink repair in Tongue, done in place
Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl typically need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. Whether it’s chipped door and drawer edges and chips in ceramic sinks, we can help, on composite sinks, cabinet ends & plinths and vinyl-wrapped doors alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What kitchen sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- One picture of the entire sink or cupboard door
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
