Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

FAQs for Strood
Do you cover Strood?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Strood for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your TN17 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know about parking or access

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
