When we’d advise against a repair

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Antique & period basins

How we handle sink repair in Hakin

If the entire basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. Common call-outs are for chips on the rim or front edge and chips on a built-in basin, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Hakin: your questions answered

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Hakin and the rest of Pembrokeshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Why repair rather than replace?

A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

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.

Signs you need sink repair in Hakin

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • A crack near the taps

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
