Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
What we’re called out for in Havercroft
Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, along with damage during fitting.
The things clients usually mention when they call are:
- A crazed, tired basin
- An original basin worth saving
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Chips on the rim or front edge
What to look for in a quote
- What preparation is included
- When it can be used again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Who will actually do the work
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why Havercroft clients choose us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- A fixed quote before booking

What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Widespread crazing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
What happens on the day
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
