Sink repair in Pool, done in place
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. If you’re dealing with an original basin worth saving and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, we can help, on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins alike.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use gentle cleaners
- Store toiletries on a shelf
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
What we are called out for in Pool
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- An original basin worth saving
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- A crack near the taps
- Chips on the rim or front edge

Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Your questions about sink repair in Pool
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Pool.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
In many cases. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can normally be used later that day or the following day.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Related advice
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Pool. What changes the price is:
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Plumbing leaks
- Through cracks that let water out
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
