How we handle sink repair in Shottermill
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. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and common reasons people get in touch are knocks from hair straighteners and chips on a built-in basin.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
For a price in Shottermill, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. 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.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Get chips repaired early
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
FAQs for Shottermill
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.
