Sink Repair for Summercourt homes
Chip, crack and resurfacing work on bathroom sinks and basins for householders, landlords and businesses in Summercourt. Send photos for a free, fixed quote.
- Repairs from £95
- A chipped vanity basin
- A chipped basin edge
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
How we handle sink repair in Summercourt
Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, matching the colour and gloss. Nothing is taken off the wall. We work on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are a crack near the taps and a period basin that needs restoring.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 often lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Questions from Summercourt
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Cornwall.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

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, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
