Should you replace it?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

About our sink repair in Cross Hill
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. Our repair technicians work on vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people get in touch are a crack near the taps and chips around the rim.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
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 crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Landlord and trade work in Cross Hill
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Widespread crazing

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
