DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Common questions in Sithney Green
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Cornwall. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
Repair or replace: which is better?
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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Get chips repaired early
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Avoid abrasive pads
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Sithney Green. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
Most customers in Sithney Green get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
