Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Should you replace it?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Kensworth, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kensworth use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
For anyone letting property in or around Kensworth, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
What we cannot put right
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Plumbing leaks
- Widespread crazing
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks

Your questions about sink repair in Kensworth
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Are there extra charges for Kensworth?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
