DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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.
What we can’t put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaks from the fittings
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we work on in Barnham
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
What affects the price in Barnham
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Barnham, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Why repair rather than replace?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Barnham. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why book with us
- No extra charge for your area
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Everything repaired in place

Common problems we fix in Barnham
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Cracks starting at the waste
- An antique basin with chips
Before you book anyone

How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Advice
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
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 and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
