How the visit works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Widespread crazing
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Mickley
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Mickley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Mickley, and we will reply with a fixed price.

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What does sink repair cost?

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Why repair rather than replace?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
