Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Painswick. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Don’t overtighten taps
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Common questions in Painswick
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Painswick.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
