Kingsey questions
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Landlord and trade work in Kingsey
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Kingsey. The price reflects:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
What we cannot put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaks from the fittings
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Should you replace it?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
