How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Buscott. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Sink repair in Buscott, done in place

Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, matching the colour and gloss. The basin stays on the wall. We are frequently asked to fix an original basin worth saving and a crack near the taps, on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Related advice

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Landlord and trade work in Buscott

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Common questions in Buscott

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Do you work in Buscott?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Buscott. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

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.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

  • A crack near the taps
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

Our hiring checklist

What we can’t put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Widespread crazing
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Buscott

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
