Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
About our sink repair in Knapwell
We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. Nothing is taken off the wall. Our repair technicians work on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most often call us about a chipped vanity basin and an antique basin with chips.

What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting 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 over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Knapwell questions
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How much does sink repair cost in Knapwell?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Knapwell. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Do not overtighten taps
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
When a repair is not the answer
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Plumbing leaks
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Repair or replace in Knapwell?
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- A fixed quote before you book
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colour-matched on site
