DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For a price in King's Cliffe, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Widespread crazing

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Enamelled basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Should you replace it?

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • No extra charge for your area

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

For anyone letting property in or around King's Cliffe, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Do you cover King's Cliffe?

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
