How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use gentle cleaners
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Harcourt Hill: your questions answered
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Harcourt Hill. The price reflects:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
If you are in Harcourt Hill and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Harcourt Hill, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Signs you need sink repair in Harcourt Hill
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Chips around the rim
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- A chipped vanity basin
Questions to ask before you book
- How long it needs to cure
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether the price covers travel
The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
