Sink repair in Chelsham without replacing anything
We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. If you’re dealing with chips from dropped toiletries and chips on a built-in basin, we can generally put it right.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
There is 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’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Questions from Chelsham
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Chelsham?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do you work in Chelsham?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Chelsham and the rest of Surrey. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use mild cleaners only
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Chelsham, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Do you need sink repair in Chelsham?
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
What to look for in a quote
- How long it needs to cure
- What happens if they find more damage
- Who turns up on the day
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
Most clients in Chelsham get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
