Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Sink repair at your home in Heydon
Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We’re frequently asked to fix damage to a basin in a vanity unit and crazing in the glaze, in Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Heydon. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Heydon questions
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Heydon.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
