There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
Will you remove the sink?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Can you quote from photos?

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Smarden Bell. The price comes down to:

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Where you are, by postcode

- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your TN27 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Smarden Bell
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Should you replace it?
A new basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- One price list for the whole UK
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Everything repaired in place

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
