Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Etchinghill
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Etchinghill use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Etchinghill: your questions answered
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Staffordshire.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Etchinghill?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Should you replace it?
A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Etchinghill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Colour mixed on the day to match

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Etchinghill. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole basin
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
