Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Do not overtighten taps
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job.
Repair or replace in Haydock?

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Haydock. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

- Colour mixed on the day to match
- No need to remove anything

What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a couple of hours for most chips from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Haydock: your questions answered
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do you come to Haydock?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Haydock for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
In many cases. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
