What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Use gentle 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.

- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

What affects the price in Purleigh
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy 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. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Repairing versus replacing in Purleigh
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
