Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
About our sink repair in Hanbury Woodend
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We regularly repair enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are an antique basin with chips and cracks around the tap holes or waste.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Your questions about sink repair in Hanbury Woodend
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Usually, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Will the price change on the day?
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?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Fixed prices from your photos
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- We leave the room as we found it

What a repair cannot fix
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaks from the fittings
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks

What happens on the day

- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. 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.

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Repair chips before they stain
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Do not overtighten taps
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
