Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Common questions in Wadswick
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How much does sink repair cost in Wadswick?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your SN13 postcode.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Repairing versus replacing in Wadswick
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Wadswick
- Work done at your home or business
- Usually one visit, start to finish

- We leave the room as we found it

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
