How we handle sink repair in Fylingthorpe
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Typical jobs include cracks starting at the waste and a period basin that needs restoring, across ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

- Plumbing leaks
- Through cracks that let water out
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How it works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
Places near Fylingthorpe
Also in Fylingthorpe
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use gentle cleaners
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
