Sink repair at your home in Puncknowle
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is normally repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Our technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people contact us are cracks around the tap holes or waste and chips around the rim.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Dorset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
If you’re in Puncknowle and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Plumbing leaks
- Widespread crazing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
