Should you replace it?
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Your questions about sink repair in Markbeech
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
In many cases. Send us pictures and we will tell you.
Is a repair better than a new one?

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
For anyone letting property in or around Markbeech, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
What we do, step by step

- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Send photos for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
