How we handle sink repair in Hailsham
If the whole basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. We work on vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are chips around the rim and cracks around the tap holes or waste.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Repairing versus replacing in Hailsham
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- A fixed quote before you book
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- One visit for most repairs
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
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.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Widespread crazing
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
