How we handle sink repair in Pipehill
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are a chipped basin edge and fine cracks across the glaze.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Do you need sink repair in Pipehill?
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
Look out for any of the following:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Chips around the rim
- Fine cracks across the glaze
Comparing quotes
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How the colour is matched
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Through cracks that let water out
- Widespread crazing
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Your questions about sink repair in Pipehill
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Pipehill
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Pipehill. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Should you replace it?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
