How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Your questions about sink repair in Chipping
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Do you come to Chipping?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Chipping for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use gentle cleaners
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- No extra charge for your area
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- We leave the room as we found it

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your PR3 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
