About our sink repair in Bentley
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. Whether it’s chips on a built-in basin and a chipped basin edge, we can normally put it right, on vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

FAQs for Bentley
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Widespread crazing
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use gentle cleaners
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Don’t overtighten taps
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.
When to call us in Bentley
Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Cracks starting at the waste

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Different materials, different repairs
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 them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
