Your questions about sink repair in Milton Abbot
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Sink repair in Milton Abbot without replacing anything
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Our technicians work on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most frequently call us about knocks from hair straighteners and an original basin worth saving.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can give you a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Plumbing leaks
- Widespread crazing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

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.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Related advice
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
