When a repair isn’t the answer
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Signs you need sink repair in Furness Vale

How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Use gentle cleaners
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
