Why repair rather than replace?
A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Glaston. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- One visit for most repairs
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Do you need sink repair in Glaston?
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- A crack near the taps
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Chips around the rim
What to look for in a quote
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the price covers travel
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Get chips repaired early
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use mild cleaners only
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
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.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What happens on the day
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
