About our sink repair in Padstow
If the entire basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. We are frequently asked to fix chips around the rim and a chipped vanity basin, in enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaks from the fittings
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Padstow: your questions answered
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Are there extra charges for Padstow?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?
We cover the entire UK, including Padstow and the rest of Cornwall. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Padstow
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
For anyone letting property in or around Padstow, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Why repair rather than replace?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

When to call us in Padstow
Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
The things clients normally mention when they call include:
- An original basin worth saving
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- A chipped basin edge
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What aftercare is recommended
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether they match the colour on site
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Get chips repaired early
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
