How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Common questions in Duloe
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How much does sink repair cost in Duloe?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PL14 postcode.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you work in Duloe?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Duloe from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Widespread crazing
- Leaks from the fittings
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Duloe
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Should you replace it?
A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What else we do in Duloe
How it works
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Related advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Duloe
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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 photos.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
When to call us in Duloe
Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

- A chipped vanity basin

- A period basin that needs restoring

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole basin
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
