About our sink repair in Bordon
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. Typical jobs include a crazed, tired basin and a chipped vanity basin, in vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Our sink repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Common questions in Bordon
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you cover the whole of Hampshire?
Across the UK, so Bordon is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Do you come to Bordon?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Bordon. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
What affects the price in Bordon
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
