What a repair cannot fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Widespread crazing
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Leaks from the fittings

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Compton

  • Enamelled basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Your questions about sink repair in Compton

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Surrey.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Common problems we fix in Compton

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A crack near the taps
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Fine cracks across the glaze

Comparing quotes

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How to look after the finish
  • When it can be used again
  • Who will actually do the work

10 questions to ask before you book

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
