About our sink repair in Holmeswood
Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We regularly repair enamelled basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are an original basin worth saving and a crack near the taps.

Why repair rather than replace?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
What you get with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Colour-matched on site

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One picture of the whole basin
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Other services in Holmeswood
Landlords, agents and businesses in Holmeswood
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Holmeswood use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
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.
