Sink repair in Rode, done in place
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Rode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Avoid abrasive pads
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
