About our sink repair in Phoenix Row
We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Typical jobs include a chipped vanity basin and a chipped basin edge, across ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit

Repair or replace in Phoenix Row?
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What else we do in Phoenix Row
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Widespread crazing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Phoenix Row: your questions answered
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Phoenix Row is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
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.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
