About our sink repair in Colehill
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Our repair technicians work on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most frequently call us about knocks from hair straighteners and chips around the rim.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Common questions in Colehill
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Do you work in Colehill?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Colehill and the rest of Dorset. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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 normally the cheaper route.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
