Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Common questions in Arkley
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
