DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
Sink repair in Merrow without replacing anything
We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. Nothing is taken off the wall. Typical jobs include chips from dropped toiletries and a period basin that needs restoring, on enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Merrow and across Surrey.

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
How quickly can you book me in?

Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Surrey. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Landlord and trade work in Merrow
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Surrey and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Repairs by material
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.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
