Sink repair in Berkeley, done in place
We match the glaze as well as the colour. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We work on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins, and common reasons people contact us are an antique basin with chips and chips on the rim or front edge.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Berkeley. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Berkeley, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaks from the fittings
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Common questions in Berkeley
How much does sink repair cost in Berkeley?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do you cover the whole of Gloucestershire?
Across the UK, and that includes Berkeley. Prices do not change with location.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Normally, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repair or replace in Berkeley?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Berkeley. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
