DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Sink repair at your home in Nesscliffe
Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, matching the colour and gloss. Nothing is taken off the wall. We regularly repair antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people contact us are a period basin that needs restoring and crazing in the glaze.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips, including clearing up.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Common questions in Nesscliffe
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
How much does sink repair cost in Nesscliffe?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can generally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Different materials, different repairs
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 and leave the character intact.
How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Get chips repaired early
- Use gentle cleaners
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Why repair rather than replace?
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

When we would advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

- Widespread crazing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
