What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Nether Street questions

Will you remove the sink?

No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

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.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Through cracks that let water out

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

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

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Repairs by material

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.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
