Sink repair at your home in Washford
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We’re often asked to fix damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and crazing in the glaze, in enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Washford
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
For anyone letting property in or around Washford, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Common questions in Washford
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
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.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you cover the whole of Somerset?
Everywhere in the UK, Washford included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Washford, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Get chips repaired early
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use mild cleaners only
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- 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.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
