About our sink repair in Privett
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Common call-outs are for a chipped vanity basin and cracks around the tap holes or waste, in ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Questions from Privett
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can generally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Landlord and trade work in Privett
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Privett use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- No need to remove anything
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Privett. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes

- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Privett. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

- The material, if you know it

- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
