Coombe Keynes questions
Do you come to Coombe Keynes?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Coombe Keynes from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire basin and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you cover the entire of Dorset?
All of Dorset, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Get chips repaired early
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Landlord and trade work in Coombe Keynes

Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Widespread crazing
- Through cracks that let water out
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
