Repairing versus replacing in Hewish
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How we handle sink repair in Hewish
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Our repair technicians work on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people get in touch are damage to a basin in a vanity unit and fine cracks across the glaze.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What else we do in Hewish
What we are called out for in Hewish
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
People generally call us when they notice one of these:
- A crazed, tired basin
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
Before you book anyone
- How changes to the job are handled
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- If travel is included in the price
- How your room will be protected
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use mild cleaners only
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Hewish questions
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Do you cover the entire of North Somerset?
We cover the entire UK, including Hewish and the rest of North Somerset. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Widespread crazing
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Related advice
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
