About our sink repair in Rosudgeon

Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We are frequently asked to fix damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and a chipped vanity basin, in vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole basin

If you’re in Rosudgeon and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

FAQs for Rosudgeon

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Surface cracks can usually be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you cover the whole of Cornwall?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your TR20 postcode.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a couple of hours for most chips, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
