About our sink repair in Kingston
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. Common call-outs are for an original basin worth saving and chips around the rim, across enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kingston as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
When a repair is not the answer
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Get chips repaired early
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Kingston. The price reflects:
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Common questions in Kingston
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Typically, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DT10 postcode.
Can you quote from photos?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Why repair rather than replace?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
