What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can generally be used later that day or the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice
Other services in Hatchmere
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole basin
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Do not overtighten taps
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
