Sink repair at your home in Hawy
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. Typical jobs include chips on the rim or front edge and a crack near the taps, across enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin that moves on its brackets
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Hawy. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Advice
How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use gentle cleaners
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
