DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Your questions about sink repair in Brean
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Brean.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Brean
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
If you are in Brean and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Should you replace it?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Get chips repaired early
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Do not overtighten taps
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
