DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
What we can’t put right
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
Repairing versus replacing in Bethania
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Questions from Bethania
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What we are called out for in Bethania
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
Look out for these signs:
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- An antique basin with chips
Before booking anyone
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How to look after the finish
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
