Before and after: a chip on the front of a bathroom basin repaired

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Brockhampton, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Your questions about sink repair in Brockhampton

Are there extra charges for Brockhampton?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Do you cover Brockhampton?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Brockhampton. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
