Bodmin questions
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
How much does sink repair cost in Bodmin?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Do you cover the whole of Cornwall?
Everywhere in the UK, Bodmin included. Travel is included in the price.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
What a repair can’t fix
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Plumbing leaks
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Through cracks that let water out
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

What else we do in Bodmin
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Repairing versus replacing in Bodmin
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Bodmin. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
