What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
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.
Sink repair in Boulby, done in place
If the whole basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. We are frequently asked to fix damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and a chipped basin edge, in vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Common problems we fix in Boulby
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
Questions to ask before booking
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if they find more damage
- How to look after the finish
- What preparation is included
Should you replace it?
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Related advice
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Boulby questions
Do you work in Boulby?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Boulby from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Frequently. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
