- Repairs from £95
- An original basin worth saving
- Cracks starting at the waste
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Sink repair in Geerlane without replacing anything
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. If you are dealing with fine cracks across the glaze and an antique basin with chips, we can typically put it right, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
The process
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 couple of hours for most chips.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Geerlane questions
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Generally, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Do you come to Geerlane?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Geerlane from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use mild cleaners only
- Repair chips before they stain
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
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.
Repair or replace in Geerlane?
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

- One visit for most repairs
- Everything repaired in place
