Sink repair in Prizet, done in place
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Repairing versus replacing in Prizet
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Other services in Prizet
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. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
When to call us in Prizet
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Chips on a built-in basin
What your quote should include
- How your room will be protected
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Prizet. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
If you are in Prizet and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Plumbing leaks

FAQs for Prizet
Do you hold any accreditations?

Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Do not overtighten taps
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
