Sink repair in Broadholme, done in place
Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We work on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on a built-in basin and crazing in the glaze.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use mild cleaners only
- Get chips repaired early
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaks from the fittings
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Should you replace it?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
