We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice
Common problems we fix in Wighill
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
The things clients typically mention when they call are:
- Chips around the rim
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A crazed, tired basin
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
Questions to ask before booking
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why us?
- No extra charge for your area
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Everything repaired in place
- Fixed prices from your photos

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Wighill questions
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, normally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can typically be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
What affects the price in Wighill
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Wighill. The price comes down to:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole basin
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
