Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How much does sink repair cost in Plot Gate?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Generally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
