What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Penpont. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Penpont. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Repairing versus replacing in Penpont
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

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

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use mild cleaners only
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 and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
