We work on Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins, and people most often call us about fine cracks across the glaze and a period basin that needs restoring.

Common problems we fix in Hare

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • A crack near the taps
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

Questions to ask before you book

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How to look after the finish

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Hare. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Make sure the area is dry

Advice

Hare: your questions answered

Will you remove the sink?

Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Antique & period basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Enamelled basins

Why repair rather than replace?

A new basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • No extra charge for your area
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
