Sink repair at your home in Bobbingworth
Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult.

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Get chips repaired early
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Essex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
What affects the price in Bobbingworth
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the whole basin
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Bobbingworth questions
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Bobbingworth?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
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 give you a fixed quote without visiting.
