Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
There are no surprise 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.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
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.
What we do, step by step
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair

What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Your questions about sink repair in Metfield
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
