Common problems we fix in Holt
Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, along with damage during fitting.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Chips around the rim
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- A period basin that needs restoring
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- When it can be used again
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
How much does sink repair cost in Holt?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can normally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.

Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the whole basin
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a repair can’t fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Leaks from the fittings
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
