Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Your questions about sink repair in Hastingleigh
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Are there extra charges for Hastingleigh?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Widespread crazing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Use gentle cleaners
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

What else we do in Hastingleigh
What affects the price in Hastingleigh
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Hastingleigh, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Should you replace it?
A basin is typically 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. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colour-matched on site
- A fixed quote before you book

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
