Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Plumbing leaks
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Star as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Advice
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole basin
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
If you’re in Star and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Your questions about sink repair in Star
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do you come to Star?
We do. Technicians travel to Star from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
