Sink Repair for Bare homes
We travel to Bare for chip, crack and resurfacing work on bathroom sinks and basins. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Chips on a built-in basin
How we handle sink repair in Bare
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We work on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and people most frequently call us about damage to a basin in a vanity unit and an original basin worth saving.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaks from the fittings

Can I fix it myself?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Bare: your questions answered
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Will you remove the sink?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
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 pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
When to call us in Bare
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Crazing in the glaze
- An original basin worth saving
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Cracks starting at the waste
Before booking anyone
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How your room will be protected
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
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.
