Should you replace it?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What affects the price in East Lydford
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- A photo taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
Most clients in East Lydford get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
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 repairing them early keeps the job simple.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Questions from East Lydford
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you cover the entire of Somerset?
We cover the entire UK, including East Lydford and the rest of Somerset. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can generally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
