Questions from Ault Hucknall
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Sink repair in Ault Hucknall, done in place
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Whether it’s chips on the rim or front edge and crazing in the glaze, we can help, on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins alike.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ault Hucknall
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Repairing versus replacing in Ault Hucknall
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

When we’d advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What else we do in Ault Hucknall
How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use mild cleaners only
- Get chips repaired early
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

What affects the price in Ault Hucknall
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
