Sink repair at your home in Hutton Wandesley
If the entire basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. We work on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people get in touch are cracks around the tap holes or waste and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
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.
Common problems we fix in Hutton Wandesley
Fine crazing in the glaze is usually down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A crack near the taps
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- An original basin worth saving
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
What your quote should include
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Who will actually do the work
- What happens if they find more damage
- What prep work is covered
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use gentle cleaners
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Widespread crazing

Hutton Wandesley: your questions answered
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
