About our sink repair in Chipstead
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. Whether it’s a period basin that needs restoring and fine cracks across the glaze, we can help, on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins alike.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Advice
Repair or replace in Chipstead?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What affects the price in Chipstead
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the entire basin
If you are in Chipstead and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Use mild cleaners only
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

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
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
