Honiton questions
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Will you remove the sink?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you come to Honiton?
We do. We send a technician to Honiton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Repair chips before they stain
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
