Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Broadstairs. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
We price from photos 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 we will come back with a fixed figure.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Landlord and trade work in Broadstairs
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Your questions about sink repair in Broadstairs
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
