DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Hambledon questions
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Are there extra charges for Hambledon?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
