Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
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.
Sink repair in Claygate without replacing anything
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. Our technicians work on antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most frequently call us about a period basin that needs restoring and chips on a built-in basin.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Should you replace it?
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Are there extra charges for Claygate?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens after I send pictures?

What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Claygate. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
If you are in Claygate and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use gentle cleaners
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
