About our sink repair in Cawthorpe
We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We are often asked to fix a period basin that needs restoring and fine cracks across the glaze, across vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
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.

Questions from Cawthorpe
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do you come to Cawthorpe?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Cawthorpe for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Usually, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips around the rim
- Cracks starting at the waste
- A chipped vanity basin
- Crazing in the glaze
What to look for in a quote
- What prep work is covered

- How changes to the job are handled
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Most clients in Cawthorpe get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can normally be used later that day or the next day.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
There’s 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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Related advice
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use mild cleaners only
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
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.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
