What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Plumbing leaks
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

FAQs for Kentsboro
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How much does sink repair cost in Kentsboro?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SO20 postcode.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Do you cover the entire of Hampshire?
The entire UK, including all of Hampshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
The process
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can generally be used later that day or the next day.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Kentsboro. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Do not overtighten taps
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
