Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Use gentle cleaners
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Rinsey Croft questions
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you cover Rinsey Croft?
We do. We send a technician to Rinsey Croft for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
For a price in Rinsey Croft, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What we cannot put right
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Plumbing leaks
- Through cracks that let water out
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
