Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Work done at your home or business

The process
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can normally be used later that day or the following day.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Bristol and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole basin
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
