Sink repair for Harcombe Bottom, without a refit. Send us photos for a fixed price, then we come to you.
- Repairs from £95
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips, including clearing up.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Harcombe Bottom?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Landlord and trade work in Harcombe Bottom
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Dorset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Our sink repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Nothing taken out or refitted
Take a look at our prices page.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire basin
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
