Sink repair at your home in Eaglescliffe
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. Our repair technicians work on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are damage to a basin in a vanity unit and cracks around the tap holes or waste.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Get chips repaired early
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use mild cleaners only
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
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.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

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 them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Questions from Eaglescliffe
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Eaglescliffe. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
