Advice
Sink repair in Doddinghurst without replacing anything
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. Common call-outs are for chips on a built-in basin and a period basin that needs restoring, on antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What affects the price in Doddinghurst
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates

- Any details about the material
Most clients in Doddinghurst get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaks from the fittings
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
Landlords, agents and businesses in Doddinghurst
Rental properties take more wear, 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.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Doddinghurst: your questions answered
Which areas do you work in?
All of Essex, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use gentle cleaners
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
