What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a couple of hours for most chips. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can normally be used later that day or the next day.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Dean Street. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Colour mixed on the day to match

What we’re called out for in Dean Street
Fine crazing in the glaze is generally down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Chips around the rim
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Cracks starting at the waste
Before booking anyone
- How the colour is matched
- How long it needs to cure

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not overtighten taps
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Common questions in Dean Street
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Are there extra charges for Dean Street?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
