About our sink repair in Bothenhampton
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Our repair technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the rim or front edge and crazing in the glaze.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Get chips repaired early
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- 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.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get 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, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Bothenhampton questions
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you come to Bothenhampton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Bothenhampton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
