Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Repair chips before they stain
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Ebchester. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the whole basin
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job without visiting.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Plumbing leaks
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Repairing versus replacing in Ebchester
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
