About our kitchen sink repair in Workhouse Hill
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it generally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. If you are dealing with chipped door and drawer edges and dents and scuffs on cabinets, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
- We sand the repair to the original profile.
- We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
- We polish or seal the repair.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
