Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
How we handle sink repair in Holbeck Urban Village
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Whether it’s chips on the rim or front edge and an antique basin with chips, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What else we do in Holbeck Urban Village
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.
Why book with us
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Work done at your home or business

When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Plumbing leaks
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

What we are called out for in Holbeck Urban Village
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.
People normally call us after spotting something like this:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Chips around the rim
Questions to ask before booking
- How changes to the job are handled
- How soon you can use it again
- What aftercare is recommended
- Who will actually do the work
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use mild cleaners only
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use gentle cleaners
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
