What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Sink repair in Soulbury without replacing anything

We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are a chipped basin edge and a period basin that needs restoring.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • One picture of the whole basin
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Landlord and trade work in Soulbury

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Repair chips before they stain

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Soulbury questions

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can normally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Widespread crazing

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Soulbury

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Antique & period basins

Why repair rather than replace?

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. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour-matched on site
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
