Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
How we handle sink repair in Penshurst
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are chips from dropped toiletries and fine cracks across the glaze.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Penshurst. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Penshurst. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire basin
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job without visiting.

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the day after.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Advice
When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Plumbing leaks
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
