Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Common call-outs are for a crazed, tired basin and knocks from hair straighteners, across Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What else we do in Basford
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use gentle cleaners
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Basford
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Shropshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Basford use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Your questions about sink repair in Basford
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
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.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What a repair cannot fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Widespread crazing
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
Repair or replace in Basford?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why book with us
- Everything repaired in place
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
