Signs you need sink repair in Matlaske
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.
People usually call us when they notice something like this:
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Chips on a built-in basin
- An antique basin with chips
- Chips from dropped toiletries

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Widespread crazing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
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.

- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage

Common questions in Matlaske
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you cover Matlaske?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Matlaske. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
