Sink Repair for Sidford homes
Our technicians come to Sidford for chip, crack and resurfacing work on bathroom sinks and basins. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- A chipped basin edge
- A period basin that needs restoring
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Do not overtighten taps
- Repair chips before they stain
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Sidford. The price reflects:
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price

Advice
Sidford: your questions answered
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Devon. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
What we’re called out for in Sidford
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
Clients generally contact us about:
- A chipped basin edge
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- A crazed, tired basin
What to look for in a quote
- Who turns up on the day
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether they match the colour on site
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Different materials, different repairs
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
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
