Hemel Hempstead questions
Will you remove the sink?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Do you come to Hemel Hempstead?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Hemel Hempstead and the rest of Hertfordshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Use gentle cleaners
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
