DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hopperton
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
What happens on the day
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
If you are in Hopperton and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use gentle cleaners
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire basin
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Repairs by material
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.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
What a repair cannot fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Common problems we fix in Hopperton
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A chipped basin edge
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Fine cracks across the glaze
What your quote should include
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What aftercare is recommended
- What preparation is included
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
