Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, 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.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What else we do in Watchfield
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Common problems we fix in Watchfield
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- An antique basin with chips
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Fine cracks across the glaze
Before you book anyone

- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
What we can’t put right
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
