  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Fine cracks across the glaze

Our hiring checklist

Should you replace it?

A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Lydbrook. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work

We don’t add 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.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Natural light rather than flash

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Lydbrook, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lydbrook

If you manage property in Lydbrook, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lydbrook use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage

Related advice

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Common questions in Lydbrook

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Lydbrook and the rest of Gloucestershire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
