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.
Should you replace it?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Halstock. The price reflects:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
Most clients in Halstock get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
The process
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the day after.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Ensure the area is dry
Getting a price
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Halstock, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
