How we handle sink repair in Benenden
If the whole basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most frequently call us about a chipped vanity basin and a crazed, tired basin.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Advice
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use gentle cleaners
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Benenden questions
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you work in Benenden?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Benenden for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Benenden
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Benenden

- If travel is included in the price

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What affects the price in Benenden
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire basin
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
