About our sink repair in Densole
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We work on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are cracks starting at the waste and a chipped basin edge.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire basin
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Questions from Densole
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Densole included. Travel is included in the price.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Densole
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Repair chips before they stain
- Do not overtighten taps
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Repairing versus replacing in Densole
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Densole. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
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.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a couple of hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
