How we handle sink repair in Bulverton
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people get in touch are an original basin worth saving and chips around the rim.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not overtighten taps
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Bulverton: your questions answered
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Devon. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
What we are called out for in Bulverton
Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.
Look out for these signs:
- Chips around the rim
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Crazing in the glaze
Before you book anyone
- Whether the price covers travel
- How long it needs to cure
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Through cracks that let water out
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
