Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
How we handle sink repair in Bearpark
We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are a crack near the taps and crazing in the glaze.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in County Durham.

What affects the price in Bearpark
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Advice

Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, and that includes Bearpark. Prices do not change with location.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Common problems we fix in Bearpark
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Crazing in the glaze

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use gentle cleaners
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
