Repair or replace: which is better?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Ballingdon. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Landlord and trade work in Ballingdon
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
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.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Do you need sink repair in Ballingdon?
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A crazed, tired basin
- A crack near the taps
- Chips around the rim
Before you book anyone
- How your room will be protected
- What happens if they find more damage
- How soon you can use it again
- What prep work is covered
When a repair is not the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
