Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Sink repair in Greasbrough, done in place
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is normally repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Typical jobs include fine cracks across the glaze and chips from dropped toiletries, across enamelled basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- The material, if you know it
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What a repair cannot fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Plumbing leaks
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
