What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Weston-on-the-Green questions

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Signs you need sink repair in Weston-on-the-Green

Fine crazing in the glaze is generally down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

  • A crack near the taps
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Chips on the rim or front edge

Comparing quotes

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How changes to the job are handled

10 questions to ask before booking

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Plumbing leaks
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins

Repairs by material

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.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Weston-on-the-Green, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
