Before and after: a crack on the edge of a basin repaired

  • A crack near the taps
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • A chipped vanity basin

Before you book anyone

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Landlord and trade work in Fosten Green

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins

How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

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.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Your questions about sink repair in Fosten Green

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

What areas do you cover?

All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Fosten Green. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
