How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Get chips repaired early
- Use gentle cleaners
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Related advice
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- One picture of the entire basin
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
