About our sink repair in Chalkwell
Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. The basin stays on the wall. Our technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are chips on a built-in basin and a crazed, tired basin.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Common questions in Chalkwell
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
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 do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire basin and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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 usually cheaper.
Should you replace it?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Chalkwell. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chalkwell use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use gentle cleaners
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
