Repair or replace: which is better?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Your questions about sink repair in Blidworth Bottoms
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Repair chips before they stain
Treat the basin 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.
