FAQs for Pinfold
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can generally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Do you come to Pinfold?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Pinfold. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
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 normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
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.
Do you need sink repair in Pinfold?
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- A chipped basin edge
- A crack near the taps

For anyone letting property in or around Pinfold, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Get chips repaired early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
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.
