Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Camdean. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Common problems we fix in Camdean
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.
Most people contact us after spotting one of these:
- Chips on a built-in basin
- A crazed, tired basin
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Cracks starting at the waste
What to look for in a quote
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Camdean. The price comes down to:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
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’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
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.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Plumbing leaks
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
