The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Landlord and trade work in Letty Green
If you manage property in Letty Green, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole basin
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
What we can’t put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Widespread crazing
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Should you replace it?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Letty Green: your questions answered
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
