Sink repair in Battlesea Green without replacing anything

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Typical jobs include chips around the rim and crazing in the glaze, in vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Suffolk.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

How to prepare

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

See our prices page.

Common problems we fix in Battlesea Green

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Chips on the rim or front edge

Questions to ask before you book

  • How to look after the finish
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What happens if they find more damage

How to compare quotes

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Battlesea Green questions

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Suffolk.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What we can’t put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
