Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are cracks starting at the waste and fine cracks across the glaze.

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Burnlee questions
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Burnlee?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Do you need sink repair in Burnlee?
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
Customers normally contact us about:
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Crazing in the glaze
What to look for in a quote
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How to care for the finish
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
