Sink repair at your home in Port Isaac
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Typical jobs include cracks around the tap holes or waste and fine cracks across the glaze, in ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What affects the price in Port Isaac
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
