What your basin is made of matters
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.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts 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. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Why us?

- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
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.
Common questions in Kingsgate
Can you quote from photos?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

How much does sink repair cost in Kingsgate?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
The process
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
