DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
About our kitchen sink repair in West Kirby
Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl usually need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Common call-outs are for chipped door and drawer edges and chips in ceramic sinks, in gloss and matt cupboard doors, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and cabinet ends & plinths.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

What kitchen sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for West Kirby. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire sink or cupboard door
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in West Kirby use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or hunting for a door that is no longer made. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you repair a chipped Belfast sink?
Yes. We often repair chips on the rim, front and around the waste.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
