Sink Repair for Cothelstone homes
Our technicians come to Cothelstone for chip, crack and resurfacing work on bathroom sinks and basins. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Cracks starting at the waste
- An antique basin with chips
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Sink repair in Cothelstone without replacing anything
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. Whether it’s an original basin worth saving and chips from dropped toiletries, we can help, on enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Get chips repaired early
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use gentle cleaners
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Plumbing leaks
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
FAQs for Cothelstone
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
