Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Get chips repaired early
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Strelley. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
How it works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Common questions in Strelley
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Strelley
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Widespread crazing
- Plumbing leaks
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
