What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

How to compare quotes

Questions from Chartham Hatch

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Chartham Hatch.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Chartham Hatch. What changes the price is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Chartham Hatch. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Widespread crazing
  • Plumbing leaks
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins

Landlord and trade work in Chartham Hatch

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Kent and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repairing versus replacing in Chartham Hatch

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
