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

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
