Repairs by material
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 them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Treat the basin 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. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Rainford Junction. What changes the price is:
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole basin
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
