Why repair rather than replace?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Every job is a little different, 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Your questions about sink repair in Taunton

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Taunton?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Do you cover Taunton?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Taunton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What your basin is made of matters

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.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Through cracks that let water out

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Antique & period basins

Landlord and trade work in Taunton

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Taunton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
