About our sink repair in Hill Hook
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. If you are dealing with cracks around the tap holes or waste and a period basin that needs restoring, we can help.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

The process
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know which floor the room is on

When we would advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Do not overtighten taps
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
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.
Should you replace it?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Questions from Hill Hook
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Do you come to Hill Hook?
We do. Technicians travel to Hill Hook from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Hill Hook?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your B74 postcode.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
