Common call-outs are for crazing in the glaze and chips on a built-in basin, in enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Cliftonville and across Kent.

What your basin is made of matters
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.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
What we’re called out for in Cliftonville
Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.
People typically call us when they notice one of these:
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- A chipped basin edge
- Cracks starting at the waste
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What aftercare is recommended
- How the colour is matched
- How soon you can use it again
Why repair rather than replace?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

FAQs for Cliftonville
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Are there extra charges for Cliftonville?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
In many cases. Send us pictures and we will tell you.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
