Sink repair in Belbins, done in place
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. We are often asked to fix damage to a basin in a vanity unit and fine cracks across the glaze, on antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Belbins and across Hampshire.

- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

FAQs for Belbins
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Belbins?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Belbins. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
