About our sink repair in Arford
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. Our technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people get in touch are knocks from hair straighteners and fine cracks across the glaze.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Arford and across Hampshire.

How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Arford, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
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.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaks from the fittings
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins

- A crack near the taps

Comparing quotes
- Whether the price covers travel
- How to care for the finish
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How soon you can use it again
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
