Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use mild cleaners only
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult.

Common questions in Ibthorpe
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
In many cases. Send us pictures and we will tell you.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Through cracks that let water out
- Plumbing leaks
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
What we do, step by step
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price

Should you replace it?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What else we do in Ibthorpe
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Hampshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The type of damage
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
