Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Sink repair in Horton without replacing anything
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. Typical jobs include crazing in the glaze and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, across antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Horton as everywhere else we work.

How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Horton: your questions answered
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of North Yorkshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins

What affects the price in Horton
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Horton. The price comes down to:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
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.
