How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Childwall, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin cracked through and leaking

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Repairing versus replacing in Childwall
A basin is typically 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. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Repair chips before they stain
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
