About our sink repair in Stourton Caundle
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. We work on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most frequently call us about crazing in the glaze and an antique basin with chips.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stourton Caundle
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
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.
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
When to call us in Stourton Caundle
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- A crack near the taps
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Fine cracks across the glaze
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair

Questions from Stourton Caundle
Can you redo someone else’s repair?

I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can generally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.
