How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Get chips repaired early
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Wicklane questions
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Wicklane.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Wicklane. What changes the price is:
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- The material
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Bath and North East Somerset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
