Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
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.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Repairing versus replacing in Netherton
A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Get chips repaired early
- Don’t overtighten taps
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What else we do in Netherton
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Netherton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Netherton: your questions answered
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Often. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
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.
Do you work in Netherton?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Netherton. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
