Sink repair in Kingseat, done in place

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. We work on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most often call us about damage to a basin in a vanity unit and a chipped basin edge.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Kingseat questions

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

For a price in Kingseat, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Don’t overtighten taps

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaks from the fittings

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

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.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Kingseat. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Should you replace it?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
