Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
If you manage property in Govilon, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Your questions about sink repair in Govilon
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Normally, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Related advice
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
When we would advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
