Sink repair in Cullompton

About our sink repair in Cullompton

Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We work on vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are an antique basin with chips and damage to a basin in a vanity unit.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

When to call us in Cullompton

Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Chips around the rim
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • A chipped vanity basin

Cullompton: your questions answered

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Will you remove the sink?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Frequently. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Cullompton.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

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.

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

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

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

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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 it works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
