How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Use gentle cleaners
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
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.
Different materials, different repairs
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
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.

Your questions about sink repair in Holton cum Beckering
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Holton cum Beckering.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Typically, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Widespread crazing
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
