Why repair rather than replace?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
What you get with us
- Everything repaired in place
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- A fixed quote before you book
See our full price list.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Do not overtighten taps
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Hollowell. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Your questions about sink repair in Hollowell
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you work in Hollowell?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Hollowell and the rest of Northamptonshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
