Sink repair in Loyterton, done in place
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. We are often asked to fix cracks around the tap holes or waste and chips on a built-in basin, on vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Loyterton. The price reflects:
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Repair or replace in Loyterton?

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Advice
Loyterton questions
Do you come to Loyterton?
We do. We send a technician to Loyterton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
