Sink repair at your home in Bojewyan
From cloakroom basins to period pieces, whatever they’re made of. There is no plumbing to disconnect. If you are dealing with a crazed, tired basin and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
In a village like Bojewyan, older cottages sometimes have period basins and toilets, which are worth repairing rather than replacing. We repair around makers’ marks where we can.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Bojewyan. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
When to call us in Bojewyan
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Chips on the rim or front edge
In the older streets of Bojewyan, around landmarks like St Bridget's Church, period sanitaryware is worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can.
Questions to ask before you book
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What protection goes down before work starts
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours. Somewhere as small as Bojewyan, access is typically the main thing to plan. Once we are there, the sink repair works exactly as anywhere else.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repair or replace in Bojewyan?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Replacement in Bojewyan means trades, travel and waste removal, while a repair is a single visit.
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
