Why repair rather than replace?

Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

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.

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
We degrease and key the damage.
We build up the filler and sand it flush.
We match the colour and the gloss.
We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

Repair chips before they stain
Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Use a heat mat for hair tools

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
