Sink repair in King's Somborne without replacing anything
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the entire basin
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use mild cleaners only
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- 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 clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaks from the fittings
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in King's Somborne as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Common problems we fix in King's Somborne
Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, along with damage during fitting.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A crack near the taps
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- A chipped basin edge
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
