Greenhill: your questions answered
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Sink repair in Greenhill without replacing anything
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are a crack near the taps and chips on the rim or front edge.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 frequently lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Repairing versus replacing in Greenhill
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
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.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Greenhill. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
