How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Repair chips before they stain
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
FAQs for Shepton Montague
Do you cover Shepton Montague?
We do. Technicians travel to Shepton Montague from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For anyone letting property in or around Shepton Montague, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
