Chathill questions
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Do you cover the whole of Northumberland?
The entire UK, including all of Northumberland. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Typically, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Repair or replace in Chathill?
A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What affects the price in Chathill
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Chathill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Chathill, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Do not overtighten taps
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Related advice
When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Through cracks that let water out
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
