How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

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.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Common questions in Somersham
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
How much does sink repair cost in Somersham?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 will not 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, and the work is guaranteed.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Somersham
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
If you manage property in Somersham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Widespread crazing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin that moves on its brackets
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled basins

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire basin
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Get chips repaired early
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Repairing versus replacing in Somersham
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
