Sink repair in Catfoss without replacing anything
Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Common call-outs are for a chipped basin edge and fine cracks across the glaze, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
FAQs for Catfoss
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of East Riding of Yorkshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Normally, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.
How much does sink repair cost in Catfoss?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Plumbing leaks
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Most customers in Catfoss get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Catfoss, and we will reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
