Kitchen sink repair at your home in Appledore
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it usually needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. We are often asked to fix cracks around the waste and chips in ceramic sinks, in vinyl-wrapped doors, composite sinks and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Appledore as everywhere else we work. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Appledore questions
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair cupboard doors?
Yes. Chips, dents and scuffs are repaired on most door finishes.
How do I get a price for kitchen sink repair in Appledore?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your EX16 postcode.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire sink or cupboard door and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by preparing the damage.
- 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.
- Finally we polish or seal it.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or finding a matching door that’s been discontinued. A repair keeps your kitchen as it is. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
