Hobbles Green: your questions answered
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Hobbles Green?

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
What a repair can’t fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
