Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Store toiletries on a shelf
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Why repair rather than replace?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
What you get with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Colour mixed on the day to match

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
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 carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Dodington: your questions answered
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can tenants book a repair?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
