What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often 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, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Signs you need sink repair in Bonkle

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- An antique basin with chips
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Chips on a built-in basin

Bonkle: your questions answered
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
In many cases. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.
Are there extra charges for Bonkle?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
