DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair

Questions from Chudleigh Knighton
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Have new chips repaired quickly
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Common problems we fix in Chudleigh Knighton
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
People normally call us after spotting something like this:
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- A crazed, tired basin
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- An antique basin with chips

Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Prices start from £95. The price 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.
