How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Questions from Biddisham

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you come to Biddisham?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Biddisham. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Should you replace it?

Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Biddisham. The price comes down to:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • How much damage there is

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A picture taken from further back

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Avoid abrasive pads

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

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
