Repair or replace: which is better?

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.

FAQs for Vines Cross
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Landlords, agents and businesses in Vines Cross
For anyone letting property in or around Vines Cross, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Vines Cross as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the entire basin
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
