- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Do you need sink repair in Porchfield?
Fine crazing in the glaze is generally down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
People normally call us after spotting something like this:
- A chipped basin edge
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- An original basin worth saving

What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy 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.
Questions from Porchfield

Repairing versus replacing in Porchfield
A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Landlord and trade work in Porchfield
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Porchfield as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- A photo taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use gentle cleaners
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
