Basin with yellowed glaze resurfaced to a clean white finish

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

Common questions in Cherhill

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

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

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Cherhill.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Widespread crazing

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Enamelled basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Cherhill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Cherhill customers choose us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Cherhill. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
