Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Through cracks that let water out
- Plumbing leaks
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Why repair rather than replace?
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Fixed prices from your photos

How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Get chips repaired early
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
