Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Common problems we fix in Burcott
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A crazed, tired basin
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- An antique basin with chips
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
Questions to ask before booking
- Who turns up on the day

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 usually cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your BA5 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Repairs by material
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. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Plumbing leaks
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
