How we handle sink repair in Chillenden
Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Our technicians work on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are cracks around the tap holes or waste and a crazed, tired basin.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Plumbing leaks
- Widespread crazing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Chillenden. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
