DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Common questions in Upper Green
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Upper Green. Prices do not change with location.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Upper Green. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A photo taken from further back
Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Upper Green, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Get chips repaired early
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Upper Green
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What we are called out for in Upper Green
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.
Look out for these signs:
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- An antique basin with chips
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Chips on the rim or front edge
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How the room is protected while they work
What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
