Sink repair in Mountsorrel without replacing anything
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. We regularly repair antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are a chipped basin edge and a chipped vanity basin.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Questions from Mountsorrel
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repairing versus replacing in Mountsorrel
A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mountsorrel use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

When to call us in Mountsorrel

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A crack near the taps
What to look for in a quote

- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What aftercare is recommended
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- The material
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
If you are in Mountsorrel and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
