Sink repair in Hattingley, done in place
Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins, and people most frequently call us about crazing in the glaze and a crack near the taps.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hattingley
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Plumbing leaks
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
