Sink Repair in Staplehay
We travel to Staplehay for chip, crack and resurfacing work on bathroom sinks and basins. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- A crazed, tired basin
- A chipped basin edge
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Sink repair in Staplehay, done in place
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are knocks from hair straighteners and chips around the rim.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Staplehay
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Somerset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Plumbing leaks
- A crack that leaks right through the basin

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Questions from Staplehay
Do you cover the whole of Somerset?
The entire UK, including all of Somerset. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Somerset.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Use mild cleaners only
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 it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Do you need sink repair in Staplehay?
Fine crazing in the glaze is generally down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Cracks starting at the waste
- A chipped basin edge
- An original basin worth saving
