Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Widespread crazing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Get chips repaired early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
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.
Common questions in Bucks Hill
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Do you cover the whole of Hertfordshire?

When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Hertfordshire.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Bucks Hill. The price comes down to:
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Bucks Hill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
