Should you replace it?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Colour-matched on site
- No extra charge for your area

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Otterton
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Otterton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Otterton questions
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Otterton included. Travel is included in the price.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Get chips repaired early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
