What a repair cannot fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Get a quote
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 if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the entire basin
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use mild cleaners only
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
