About our sink repair in Polperro
We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. The basin stays on the wall. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins, and common reasons people contact us are an original basin worth saving and damage to a basin in a vanity unit.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
Every job is a little different, 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.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Why repair rather than replace?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Polperro. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- Work done at your home or business
- We leave the room as we found it
- One price list for the entire UK
- A year’s guarantee on all work

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaks from the fittings
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Get chips repaired early
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
FAQs for Polperro
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
