FAQs for Smallridge
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Are there extra charges for Smallridge?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How much does sink repair cost in Smallridge?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
If you’re in Smallridge and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
