About our sink repair in Sennen Cove
If the whole basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. If you are dealing with damage to a basin in a vanity unit and a period basin that needs restoring, we can generally put it right.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Repairing versus replacing in Sennen Cove
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Sennen Cove clients choose us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What else we do in Sennen Cove
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
FAQs for Sennen Cove

Can pets and children be at home?
