What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Compton. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Compton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a couple of hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Advice

Repair or replace in Compton?

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Compton

  • No extra charge for your area
  • No need to remove anything
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

See our full price list.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Compton

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
