Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Landlord and trade work in Hackington
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Should you replace it?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Our sink repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hackington. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Hackington questions
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you come to Hackington?
We do. We send a technician to Hackington for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Hackington?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
