Materials and what they mean for the repair
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 carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Ensure the area is dry
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What else we do in Haster
What affects the price in Haster
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
For a price in Haster, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Highland and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Your questions about sink repair in Haster
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can normally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.
Signs you need sink repair in Haster
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A crack near the taps
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A period basin that needs restoring
What to look for in a quote
- When it can be used again
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether the price covers travel
- How changes to the job are handled
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin that moves on its brackets
