Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage
- Make sure the area is dry

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
