Why repair rather than replace?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
The process
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Your questions about sink repair in Moorside
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Usually, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Moorside and the rest of Dorset. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Moorside?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Moorside
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Common problems we fix in Moorside
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A crazed, tired basin
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- A crack near the taps
- An original basin worth saving
What your quote should include
- Whether they match the colour on site
- If travel is included in the price
- Aftercare advice
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
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.
