DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
About our kitchen sink repair in Apperknowle
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it typically needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Typical jobs include cracks around the waste and dents and scuffs on cabinets, in cabinet ends & plinths, composite sinks and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks.
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 dry the door edges after spills.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Apperknowle.

Questions from Apperknowle
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you repair a chipped Belfast sink?
Yes. Chips to the rim, apron and around the waste are common repairs.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Do you come to Apperknowle?
We do. We send a technician to Apperknowle for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

How the visit works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
- Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
- The repair is sanded to the original profile.
- We match the colour to the glaze or door.
- The repair is polished or sealed.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole sink or cupboard door, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
