What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Landlord and trade work in Kington
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the whole basin
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What else we do in Kington
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Should you replace it?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. For a rural home like those around Kington, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while a repair is a single visit.
Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- No extra charge for your area
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
