Common problems we fix in Anacrehill
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.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A crazed, tired basin
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- An antique basin with chips
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
Questions to ask before booking
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How to care for the finish
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- What preparation is included
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Through cracks that let water out
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Common questions in Anacrehill
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you cover Anacrehill?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Anacrehill from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will you remove the sink?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Anacrehill?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Should you replace it?
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. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Anacrehill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your DE6 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.
