How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
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 and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Repairing versus replacing in Gamlingay
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Gamlingay. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
