Sink Repair in Bodicote
Problem with your basin in Bodicote? We repair it in place, match it on site and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- A chipped vanity basin
- Crazing in the glaze
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Get chips repaired early
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
About our sink repair in Bodicote
Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Common call-outs are for a period basin that needs restoring and fine cracks across the glaze, across vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common questions in Bodicote
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice
What affects the price in Bodicote
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Bodicote. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- A picture taken from further back
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
