Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Roman Hill. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job without visiting.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. 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.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Widespread crazing

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Do not overtighten taps

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
