- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Plumbing leaks
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Get chips repaired early
- Use mild cleaners only
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Common questions in Howe Green
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Do you cover Howe Green?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Howe Green from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
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 generally the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Howe Green. The price reflects:
- The material
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed price.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
