About our sink repair in Carnhell Green

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Whether it’s chips around the rim and a period basin that needs restoring, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the area is dry

Getting a price

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.

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cornwall and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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 risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Repair chips before they stain

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Leaks from the fittings

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Carnhell Green questions

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Frequently. Send us pictures and we will tell you.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
