About our sink repair in Clivocast
We match the glaze as well as the colour. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most often call us about cracks starting at the waste and crazing in the glaze.

How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Clivocast, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaks from the fittings
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Clivocast
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not overtighten taps
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
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.
Common questions in Clivocast
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Repair or replace in Clivocast?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
