Sink repair in Newton, done in place
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We work on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are chips around the rim and a crack near the taps.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Do not overtighten taps
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Newton is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What affects the price in Newton
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the next day.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
