Sink repair in Goodrington without replacing anything

We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. Nothing is taken off the wall. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are knocks from hair straighteners and an antique basin with chips.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Goodrington. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

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.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Torbay and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Advice

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

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

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What a repair cannot fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Widespread crazing
