Different materials, different repairs
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
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
What we cannot put right
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Should you replace it?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Our sink repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Most jobs done in one visit

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Common questions in Cradoc
Do you cover the entire of Powys?
We work UK-wide, so Cradoc is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
