Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Advice
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Repair chips before they stain
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Questions from Chalton
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
How much does sink repair cost in Chalton?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
