Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Fishbourne, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
What we are called out for in Fishbourne
Fine crazing in the glaze is typically down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.
The things clients normally mention when they call are:
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Cracks starting at the waste
- An antique basin with chips
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if they find more damage
- If travel is included in the price
- Who turns up on the day
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
