Before and after: an old basin refinished to bright white

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

How it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A picture taken from further back

For a price in Drumoyne, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Do not overtighten taps

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Drumoyne: your questions answered

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
