Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
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.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
- Use gentle cleaners
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
New Haw questions
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you cover New Haw?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to New Haw for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can generally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed price.
Should you replace it?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
