How we handle sink repair in Allington
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are a chipped basin edge and knocks from hair straighteners.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Allington and across Wiltshire.

What affects the price in Allington
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Allington. The price comes down to:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A photo taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear the area around the damage

Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Allington questions
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Allington and the rest of Wiltshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
