What affects the price in Eign Hill
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Eign Hill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your HR1 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Repair chips before they stain
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Avoid abrasive pads
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Eign Hill questions
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you cover Eign Hill?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Eign Hill from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
