Common questions in Hallew
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
What a repair can’t fix
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use mild cleaners only
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
