Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
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 frequently lifts.

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Alhampton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire basin
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Common questions in Alhampton
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Typically, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Alhampton. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Are there extra charges for Alhampton?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Alhampton?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use mild cleaners only
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
