Repair or replace in Mitford?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Sink repair in Mitford, done in place
We match the glaze as well as the colour. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the rim or front edge and an original basin worth saving.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Mitford. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
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.
Common problems we fix in Mitford
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
Look out for these signs:
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Crazing in the glaze
- A crack near the taps

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t overtighten taps
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
