Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Sink repair in Raby Mere, done in place
Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Our technicians work on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most often call us about a crack near the taps and a chipped vanity basin.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Raby Mere and across Wirral.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Raby Mere. The price comes down to:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Most clients in Raby Mere get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Plumbing leaks

Different materials, different repairs

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- 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.

How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
