What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Common questions in Idmiston
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you cover Idmiston?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Idmiston. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Through cracks that let water out
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Leaks from the fittings

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Idmiston. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Most customers in Idmiston get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What else we do in Idmiston
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Get chips repaired early
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
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.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Make sure the area is dry
