Sink repair at your home in Gorsley
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Typical jobs include crazing in the glaze and chips from dropped toiletries, on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Get chips repaired early
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire basin
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Widespread crazing
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Common questions in Gorsley

Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Often. Send us pictures and we will tell you.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you cover Gorsley?

Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
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.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
