What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Plumbing leaks
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Hexthorpe. The price comes down to:
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
If you are in Hexthorpe and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Repairing versus replacing in Hexthorpe
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, 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 your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
