Sink repair in Dimple

Sink repair in Dimple, done in place

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Common call-outs are for a chipped basin edge and a crack near the taps, across ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What affects the price in Dimple

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Dimple. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Why repair rather than replace?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Take a look at our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Signs you need sink repair in Dimple

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • A crack near the taps
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • A chipped basin edge

What your quote should include

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • When it can be used again
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

10 questions to ask before you book

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Do not overtighten taps

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Repairs by material

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

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Questions from Dimple

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you come to Dimple?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Dimple. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, tidy-up included.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
