About our sink repair in Shevington
We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine.

Shevington: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Do you come to Shevington?
We do. We send a technician to Shevington for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Are there extra charges for Shevington?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your WN6 postcode.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a couple of hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

What a repair cannot fix

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
