Sink repair for Clyst St George homes

Sink repair in Clyst St George, done in place

Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We’re often asked to fix an antique basin with chips and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools, on Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Devon.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EX3 postcode.

Do you come to Clyst St George?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Clyst St George. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Clyst St George use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What affects the price in Clyst St George

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For a price in Clyst St George, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
