The process
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Related advice
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use mild cleaners only
- Use gentle cleaners
- Do not overtighten taps
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
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.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Barnardiston as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
