Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
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.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Skye Green. The price reflects:
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
If you’re in Skye Green and want a price, 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.
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Common questions in Skye Green
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
In many cases. Send us photos and we will tell you.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Do you come to Skye Green?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Skye Green and the rest of Essex. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
What areas do you cover?
All of Essex, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Plumbing leaks
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
