Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Why book with us

- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- A fixed quote before you book
- Colour-matched on site
See our prices page.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
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 and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
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.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Widespread crazing
- Leaks from the fittings
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins

- How hard the colour is to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Hunters Forstal. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

How the visit works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
