How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid abrasive pads
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Newton Rigg questions
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Newton Rigg?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CA11 postcode.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you work in Newton Rigg?
We do. We send a technician to Newton Rigg for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
If you manage property in Newton Rigg, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

- Where the damage is and how we get to it
