How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Do not overtighten taps

Treat the basin 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 and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Plumbing leaks
  • Widespread crazing

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Mill Bank: your questions answered

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Mill Bank?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Typically, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Mill Bank. The price reflects:

  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Most clients in Mill Bank get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
