DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 will not last.

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.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bell Bar

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips. We leave the room clean.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode

For a price in Bell Bar, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

When to call us in Bell Bar

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

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • A chipped basin edge
  • An original basin worth saving

Before booking anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Aftercare advice
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

Should you replace it?

A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Colour-matched on site

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
