How we handle sink repair in Buttsole
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. If you’re dealing with an antique basin with chips and a crack near the taps, we can help, on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Buttsole. The price comes down to:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Common questions in Buttsole
Do you come to Buttsole?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Buttsole. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can typically be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Plumbing leaks
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Repair chips before they stain
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
