Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
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.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Our repair technicians work on antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are knocks from hair straighteners and chips on a built-in basin.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Welling and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Signs you need sink repair in Welling
Fine crazing in the glaze is typically down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Crazing in the glaze
- An antique basin with chips
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
Questions to ask before booking
- How your room will be protected
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether they match the colour on site
How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Can I fix it myself?
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, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Plumbing leaks
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
Different materials, different repairs
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.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
