Should you replace it?
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.

What affects the price in Bracken Hill
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Bracken Hill questions
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Kirklees.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Often. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Do you come to Bracken Hill?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Bracken Hill and the rest of Kirklees. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Are there extra charges for Bracken Hill?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins often 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.
When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Through cracks that let water out
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
