Sink repair in Tintinhull without replacing anything
We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. The basin stays on the wall. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins, and people most often call us about fine cracks across the glaze and chips around the rim.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Somerset.

The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a couple of hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Tintinhull
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
If you manage property in Tintinhull, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Repair or replace in Tintinhull?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Repairs by material
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.
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.
When a repair is not the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
What affects the price in Tintinhull
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use mild cleaners only
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Get chips repaired early
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
