Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Alnmouth. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
Should you replace it?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
