Common problems we fix in Collier Row
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Crazing in the glaze
- A chipped basin edge
- Cracks starting at the waste
What to look for in a quote
- Who turns up on the day
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How soon you can use it again
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
What happens on the day
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
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.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

What affects the price in Collier Row
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Collier Row. The price comes down to:
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Should you replace it?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. 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.
