- Repairs from £95
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Related advice
Sink repair in Haverthwaite, done in place
We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Whether it’s a crack near the taps and a chipped basin edge, we can usually put it right, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use gentle cleaners
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Haverthwaite. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Landlord and trade work in Haverthwaite
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
For anyone letting property in or around Haverthwaite, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Different materials, different repairs
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.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
