How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Plumbing leaks
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Queen's Cross. The price comes down to:
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Most customers in Queen's Cross get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
For a price in Queen's Cross, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
