Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
If you are in Small Dole and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do I have to be there?

What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Small Dole. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the day after.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
