How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
For anyone letting property in or around Old Bilton, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- A fixed quote before booking
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
