About our sink repair in Netherton
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We work on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are damage to a basin in a vanity unit and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Netherton: your questions answered
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
What areas do you cover?
All of Devon, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Netherton?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What affects the price in Netherton
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Netherton. What changes the price is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole basin
- Your postcode, so we can check dates

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Landlord and trade work in Netherton
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Get chips repaired early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Use gentle 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. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
