About our sink repair in Marsh Gibbon
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. Our repair technicians work on vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most often call us about damage to a basin in a vanity unit and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Should you replace it?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Advice
When we would advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- A crack that leaks right through the basin

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, 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.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Marsh Gibbon, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
