What we do, step by step
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Copthorne: your questions answered
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Through cracks that let water out
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Get chips repaired early
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
