Kitchen sink repair at your home in Applethwaite
Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl usually need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Typical jobs include chips in ceramic sinks and damage from fitting or moving appliances, in ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, composite sinks and gloss and matt cupboard doors.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Applethwaite: your questions answered
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

- First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
- Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
- We shape the repair to match the original.
- We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
- The repair is polished or sealed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
