Sink repair in Cat Hill without replacing anything
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. Typical jobs include damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Questions from Cat Hill
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you work in Cat Hill?
We do. We send a technician to Cat Hill for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Repairing versus replacing in Cat Hill
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Related advice
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
