Sink repair in Newton Ferrers, done in place
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. If you’re dealing with chips on a built-in basin and cracks starting at the waste, we can normally put it right.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Common problems we fix in Newton Ferrers

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
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.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
Should you replace it?
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.
Why book with us
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Same prices wherever you are
See our prices page.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Questions from Newton Ferrers
Will you remove the sink?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
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.

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
