How we handle sink repair in Cinderhill
We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We regularly repair antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people contact us are cracks starting at the waste and chips from dropped toiletries.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

What else we do in Cinderhill
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the whole basin
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Cinderhill questions
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
