How we handle sink repair in North Petherton
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and common reasons people get in touch are crazing in the glaze and cracks starting at the waste.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What affects the price in North Petherton
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- One picture of the entire basin
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in North Petherton, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

North Petherton: your questions answered
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Will you remove the sink?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in North Petherton.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you cover North Petherton?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to North Petherton. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
