DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
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.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Common questions in Michaelston-le-Pit
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
In many cases. Send us photos and we will tell you.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. 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.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first

- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CF64 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
