How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Avoid abrasive pads
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Common questions in Wherwell Wood
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Wherwell Wood
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wherwell Wood as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, 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: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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 photos.
