Sink repair for Chambercombe homes

Sink repair in Chambercombe, done in place

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. Whether it’s damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and chips on the rim or front edge, we can help, 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 come back.

What affects the price in Chambercombe

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the whole basin
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Chambercombe: your questions answered

Do you cover the whole of Devon?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Chambercombe

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

When to call us in Chambercombe

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • An original basin worth saving
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • A crack near the taps
  • A crazed, tired basin

Our hiring checklist

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin

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

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Composite and resin

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