Common questions in Spreyton
Do you cover the whole of Devon?
Across the UK, so Spreyton is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Usually, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you cover Spreyton?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Spreyton. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Sink repair in Spreyton, done in place
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Typical jobs include a period basin that needs restoring and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, across antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairing versus replacing in Spreyton

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Spreyton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What affects the price in Spreyton
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
