Advice
Sink repair at your home in Heads Hill
Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Whether it’s a chipped basin edge and cracks starting at the waste, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Heads Hill questions
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
What we are called out for in Heads Hill
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A crack near the taps
- An antique basin with chips
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- A crazed, tired basin
Comparing quotes
- What happens if they find more damage
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Should you replace it?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

- Fixed prices from your pictures

When we’d advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Plumbing leaks
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Repair chips before they stain
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
