How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Related advice

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Landlord and trade work in Halsham

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

FAQs for Halsham

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Halsham. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Do you need sink repair in Halsham?

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • A chipped basin edge

Questions to ask before booking

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Should you replace it?

A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Halsham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
