Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Get chips repaired early
- Don’t overtighten taps
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
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.
About our sink repair in East Halton
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We’re often asked to fix fine cracks across the glaze and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools, on enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in East Halton and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in East Halton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
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.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
East Halton questions
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage
