Sink & basin repair in Horrabridge, Devon
We travel to Horrabridge for chip, crack and resurfacing work on bathroom sinks and basins. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- A chipped vanity basin
- A period basin that needs restoring
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Get chips repaired early
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Do not overtighten taps
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
How we handle sink repair in Horrabridge
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. Common call-outs are for crazing in the glaze and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, across antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
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 typically the cheaper route.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your PL20 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Questions from Horrabridge
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Send us photos and we will tell you.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Same prices wherever you are
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
When we’d advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Widespread crazing
- Through cracks that let water out
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
