Should you replace it?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Mayfield. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why Mayfield customers choose us

Take a look at our pricing.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Get chips repaired early
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know about parking or access

Related advice
Do you need sink repair in Mayfield?
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A crack near the taps
- Chips around the rim
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Chips on a built-in basin

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The material
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Mayfield questions
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Mayfield?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Send us pictures and we will tell you.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Plumbing leaks
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
