  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste

  • A chipped basin edge
  • Chips on a built-in basin

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

How to compare quotes

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  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. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Should you replace it?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No need to remove anything

Questions from Pavenham

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What areas do you cover?

All of Bedford Borough, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Do you come to Pavenham?

We do. Technicians travel to Pavenham from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Repair chips before they stain

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

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. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

We do not 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.

How to get a fixed quote

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Pavenham, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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