How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

10 questions to ask before booking

Should you replace it?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

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, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Leaks from the fittings

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match

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 there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Nutwalls, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
