Sink Repair in South Pill
Our technicians come to South Pill for chip, crack and resurfacing work on bathroom sinks and basins. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- A chipped basin edge
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Sink repair in South Pill without replacing anything
Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Typical jobs include chips on the rim or front edge and an original basin worth saving, across vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
The process
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing 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.
- The basin can normally be used later that day or the day after.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

About South Pill
South Pill is about 1 mile north-east of Saltash, in Cornwall. Our work suits any type of property, from flats and terraces to detached houses and new builds, plus businesses and rented homes. We work in 644 places across Cornwall.
All of PL12 is covered, from the main roads to the quietest streets. We regularly work on streets such as New Road, Pill Lane and Adit Lane. You’ll find South Pill on the A38, so it’s easy for us to reach. Close by, we cover Saltash (1 mile south-west), Burraton (1 mile west), Burraton Coombe (1 mile west), Wearde (1 mile south) and St Stephens (1 mile south-west).

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t 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 photos, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
