Sink repair in Doniford, done in place
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are chips on a built-in basin and chips from dropped toiletries.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Doniford and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
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.
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Doniford, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the next day.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TA23 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Doniford questions
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Doniford. Prices don’t change with location.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
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. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
