How we handle sink repair in Avonwick
If the entire basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. We’re often asked to fix chips on the rim or front edge and a chipped vanity basin, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and 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.

Avonwick questions
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do you come to Avonwick?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Avonwick and the rest of Devon. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What else we do in Avonwick
What affects the price in Avonwick
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Avonwick, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Related advice
Do you need sink repair in Avonwick?

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use mild cleaners only
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
