Keeping it looking good

- Don’t overtighten taps
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

What your basin is made of matters
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 fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
What affects the price in Wateringbury
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Wateringbury. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Repair or replace in Wateringbury?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Widespread crazing
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Wateringbury
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
When to call us in Wateringbury
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- An antique basin with chips
- A crazed, tired basin
- Cracks starting at the waste

Wateringbury: your questions answered
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs 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.
Do you cover Wateringbury?
We do. Technicians travel to Wateringbury from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
