How we handle sink repair in East Marden
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Our technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and common reasons people get in touch are an original basin worth saving and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What else we do in East Marden
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Why repair rather than replace?
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can normally be used later that day or the day after.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- A basin cracked through and leaking

How much does sink repair cost in East Marden?

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
