DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Common questions in Satmar
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Can I get a quote without a visit?

How much does sink repair cost in Satmar?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your CT18 postcode.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Will you remove the sink?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Should you replace it?
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
What we cannot put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Use mild cleaners only
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
