Sink repair at your home in Beech Hill
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.

When to call us in Beech Hill
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- A chipped vanity basin
What to look for in a quote
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How soon you can use it again
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Beech Hill. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- A photo taken from further back
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job without visiting.
What we do, step by step

- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
