How we handle sink repair in Bovey Tracey
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We work on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins, and people most often call us about cracks around the tap holes or waste and a period basin that needs restoring.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Devon and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
If you manage property in Bovey Tracey, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Repairing versus replacing in Bovey Tracey
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

When to call us in Bovey Tracey

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- A crazed, tired basin
- A chipped basin edge
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste

Your questions about sink repair in Bovey Tracey
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do you come to Bovey Tracey?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Bovey Tracey from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
How much does sink repair cost in Bovey Tracey?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Bovey Tracey
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins

How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Get chips repaired early
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
