Sink repair in Bigyn, done in place
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. We work on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are chips on a built-in basin and fine cracks across the glaze.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bigyn
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice
Also in Bigyn
Should you replace it?
A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Get chips repaired early
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Bigyn. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas

Bigyn: your questions answered
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
