The process
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare

Landlord and trade work in Great Wratting
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Get chips repaired early
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Great Wratting
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will you remove the sink?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
