Sink repair in Gembling without replacing anything
If the whole basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. We are often asked to fix chips on a built-in basin and chips on the rim or front edge, in enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole basin
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Should you replace it?
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Plumbing leaks
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Through cracks that let water out
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
