How we handle sink repair in Lassington
Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are damage to a basin in a vanity unit and cracks starting at the waste.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Should you replace it?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Widespread crazing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Common problems we fix in Lassington
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- An original basin worth saving
- A crazed, tired basin
- Chips on a built-in basin
Questions to ask before you book
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Who will actually do the work
- How to care for the finish
- What protection goes down before work starts
The process
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Lassington questions
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Usually, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What areas do you cover?

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
