Sink repair in Hayton, done in place
Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Common call-outs are for a crack near the taps and fine cracks across the glaze, on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Hayton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- One price list for the whole UK
- One visit for most repairs
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Landlord and trade work in Hayton
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaks from the fittings
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Common problems we fix in Hayton
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A crazed, tired basin
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- A period basin that needs restoring

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

- The type of damage
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Hayton, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
