What affects the price in Chell
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Chell. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Why repair rather than replace?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
