Sink & basin repair in Alstone, Gloucestershire
Sink repair in and around Alstone: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- A chipped vanity basin
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use gentle cleaners
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Sink repair at your home in Alstone
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. Our repair technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins, and people most frequently call us about cracks around the tap holes or waste and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Alstone. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Landlord and trade work in Alstone
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
