How we handle sink repair in Halnaker
If the whole basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. If you’re dealing with a crazed, tired basin and an antique basin with chips, we can help, on vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Widespread crazing
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Ensure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Halnaker
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Often. Send us pictures and we will tell you.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Are there extra charges for Halnaker?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Halnaker. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

What else we do in Halnaker
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
