Kitchen sink repair at your home in Whelley
Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl typically need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Whether it’s chips in ceramic sinks and chipped door and drawer edges, we can help.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new 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. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How we price kitchen sink repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the entire sink or cupboard door
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

- We shape the repair to match the original.
- We match the colour to the glaze or door.
- We polish or seal the repair.

Advice
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
- Doors swollen by water
- Sinks cracked through the base
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic Belfast & butler sinks
- Vinyl-wrapped doors
- Gloss and matt cupboard doors
- Composite sinks
- Cabinet ends & plinths
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
