Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t overtighten taps
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Common questions in Finningham
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Finningham is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you cover Finningham?
We do. Technicians travel to Finningham from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
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.
What affects the price in Finningham
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Finningham. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
