Sink repair at your home in Bawsey
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We work on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are a chipped basin edge and a period basin that needs restoring.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Bawsey and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Should you replace it?
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether they match the colour on site
What happens on the day
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Bawsey. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Common questions in Bawsey
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Bawsey?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
