Should you replace it?
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- No need to remove anything
- Fixed prices from your pictures

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
What affects the price in Compton
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Landlord and trade work in Compton
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Compton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Common questions in Compton
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Compton?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Advice
When a repair is not the answer
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin that moves on its brackets
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Compton
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use mild cleaners only
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
