Questions from Belmont
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you work in Belmont?
We do. We send a technician to Belmont for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Belmont. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
How the visit works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Repairs by material
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.
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use mild cleaners only
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
