Common problems we fix in Kingston on Soar
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
The things customers usually mention when they call include:
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- A crack near the taps
- An original basin worth saving
What your quote should include
- How to care for the finish
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- If travel is included in the price
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use gentle cleaners
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Should you replace it?
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why book with us
- Everything repaired in place
- Work done at your home or business
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- One visit for most repairs

Landlord and trade work in Kingston on Soar
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
