Sink repair in Hales, done in place
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 work on Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are an antique basin with chips and chips on a built-in basin.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Do not overtighten taps
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Common problems we fix in Hales
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
The things clients normally mention when they call include:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Cracks starting at the waste
- A chipped vanity basin
- Chips from dropped toiletries
What your quote should include
- How to care for the finish
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How long it needs to cure
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Hales. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

- Widespread crazing

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hales. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Your questions about sink repair in Hales
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Generally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
