About our sink repair in Godolphin Cross

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. We work on enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins, and people most frequently call us about chips around the rim and crazing in the glaze.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Your questions about sink repair in Godolphin Cross

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cornwall.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?

All of Cornwall, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Honest limits

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Enamelled basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

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

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Godolphin Cross

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.

Look out for these signs:

  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • A chipped basin edge
  • A crack near the taps

Before you book anyone

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who will actually do the work

Period and antique
