Coate questions
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Are there extra charges for Coate?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How we handle sink repair in Coate
If the entire basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. Whether it’s damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, we can help, on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins alike.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Widespread crazing
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

When to call us in Coate
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Chips around the rim
- A chipped vanity basin
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Crazing in the glaze
Before booking anyone
- What prep work is covered
- When it can be used again
- Whether the price covers travel

How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
For anyone letting property in or around Coate, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire basin
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
