- Repairs from £95
- Chips around the rim
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hindlip. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- One picture of the whole basin
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Common questions in Hindlip
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire basin and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your WR3 postcode.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
For a price in Hindlip, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Landlord and trade work in Hindlip
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What we can’t put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Widespread crazing
- Leaks from the fittings

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Get chips repaired early
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
