Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Blackfen: your questions answered
Can I add another job to the visit?

How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Which areas do you work in?

What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your DA15 postcode.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Related advice
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, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
