How we handle sink repair in Sourton
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is typically repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We work on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people get in touch are chips from dropped toiletries and a chipped basin edge.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Sourton and across Devon.

How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaks from the fittings
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Sourton: your questions answered
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Landlord and trade work in Sourton
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Common problems we fix in Sourton
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A crack near the taps
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- A crazed, tired basin
- An antique basin with chips
Questions to ask before booking
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether they match the colour on site
- If travel is included in the price
- What protection goes down before work starts
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Sourton. What changes the price is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
