How we handle sink repair in Penhallick
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. If you are dealing with a period basin that needs restoring and crazing in the glaze, we can generally put it right.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why book with us
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use mild cleaners only
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
