Questions from Cousland
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Cousland?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EH22 postcode.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Do you come to Cousland?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Cousland from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use gentle cleaners
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.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your EH22 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Cousland. The price comes down to:
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
