About our sink repair in Holywell Lake
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Our repair technicians work on antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most frequently call us about cracks starting at the waste and damage to a basin in a vanity unit.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Somerset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Repair chips before they stain
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Common questions in Holywell Lake
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Holywell Lake?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you come to Holywell Lake?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Holywell Lake from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins often 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.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
When to call us in Holywell Lake
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- An antique basin with chips

Should you replace it?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Holywell Lake. What changes the price is:
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the day after.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
