It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

What your quote should include

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who turns up on the day

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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.

What a repair can’t fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Widespread crazing
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

How we price sink repair

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
