Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Longforgan. The price reflects:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DD2 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Get chips repaired early
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
