Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can give you a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
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 photos.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaks from the fittings
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins

How much does sink repair cost in Little Clifton?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CA14 postcode.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Should you replace it?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Generally 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
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
Most clients in Little Clifton get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Avoid abrasive pads
- 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 and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
