Kitchen sink repair at your home in Wilmington
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it normally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. If you are dealing with cracks around the waste and damage from fitting or moving appliances, we can help.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

What affects the price in Wilmington
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole sink or cupboard door
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the sink or cupboard door, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
