Sink repair in Brattle without replacing anything

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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.

Different materials, different repairs
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.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Widespread crazing
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

FAQs for Brattle
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.
Will you remove the sink?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Common problems we fix in Brattle
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A chipped vanity basin
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Fine cracks across the glaze
Questions to ask before booking
- How soon you can use it again
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How the room is protected while they work
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Make sure the area is dry

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
