Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
When to call us in East Allington
Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- An antique basin with chips
- Chips around the rim

Common questions in East Allington
Will you remove the sink?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you cover East Allington?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to East Allington and the rest of Devon. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What affects the price in East Allington
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
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 quote, not an estimate.
Repair or replace in East Allington?

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for East Allington. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

The process
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
