Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Sink repair in Haynes, done in place
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. Our technicians work on enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins, and people most frequently call us about fine cracks across the glaze and a chipped basin edge.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Repair or replace in Haynes?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- No extra charge for your area

Other services in Haynes
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Get chips repaired early
- Use gentle cleaners
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What we are called out for in Haynes
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
Look out for these signs:
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- A crazed, tired basin
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Chips from dropped toiletries

The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Advice
When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Through cracks that let water out
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Haynes: your questions answered
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- One picture of the whole basin
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
Most customers in Haynes get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
