How the visit works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Should you replace it?

A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Do you need sink repair in Pollhill?

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.

Most people contact us after spotting something like this:

  • Chips around the rim
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Cracks starting at the waste

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

10 questions to ask before you book

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pollhill

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

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.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the entire basin

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically 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.
