Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice
Common questions in Mudford Sock
Do you come to Mudford Sock?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Mudford Sock. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will you remove the sink?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Mudford Sock?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you cover the entire of Somerset?
The entire UK, including all of Somerset. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Repairing versus replacing in Mudford Sock
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. 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.

- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your BA21 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
