DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks

Repair or replace: which is better?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Raddington. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Common questions in Raddington

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you work in Raddington?

We do. Technicians travel to Raddington from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

For a price in Raddington, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
