Kitchen sink repair at your home in Walmer
We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it normally needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. We regularly repair vinyl-wrapped doors, cabinet ends & plinths and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, and common reasons people contact us are damage from fitting or moving appliances and dents and scuffs on cabinets.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Walmer and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by preparing the damage.
- Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
- We sand the repair to the original profile.
- The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
- The repair is polished or sealed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Walmer: your questions answered
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do you cover Walmer?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Walmer from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you cover the entire of Kent?
We work UK-wide, so Walmer is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Walmer. The price comes down to:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Walmer. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire sink or cupboard door
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Walmer, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or finding a matching door that is been discontinued. A repair keeps your kitchen as it is. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
