Kitchen sink repair in Whale Hill without replacing anything
Repairs are matched to 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. We work on cabinet ends & plinths, vinyl-wrapped doors and gloss and matt cupboard doors, and the jobs we see most are chips in ceramic sinks and cracks around the waste.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

What kitchen sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
For a price in Whale Hill, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Whale Hill
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
If you manage property in Whale Hill, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
