Do you need sink repair in Portland Bill?
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A chipped basin edge
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- A crack near the taps

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Portland Bill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What affects the price in Portland Bill
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
Landlords, agents and businesses in Portland Bill
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Dorset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can normally be used later that day or the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
