Repairing versus replacing in Abbotswood
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Work done at your home or business
- Everything repaired in place
Read our pricing.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Abbotswood. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Abbotswood, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Honest limits
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
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.
