About our sink repair in Plymstock
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. Our repair technicians work on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are cracks around the tap holes or waste and chips on a built-in basin.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Your questions about sink repair in Plymstock
Do you cover Plymstock?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Plymstock and the rest of Plymouth. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can normally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
