How we handle sink repair in Yelverton
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Our repair technicians work on vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins, and people most frequently call us about a period basin that needs restoring and chips on a built-in basin.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Yelverton and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Yelverton questions
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you cover Yelverton?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Yelverton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Yelverton?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Yelverton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Related advice
Should you replace it?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- One-year guarantee on every repair

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 normally the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
Common problems we fix in Yelverton
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A crack near the taps
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A crazed, tired basin
- A chipped vanity basin
Before you book anyone
- Who will actually do the work
- What aftercare is recommended
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
