Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Common questions in Ridgeway
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
How do I book?

When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Get chips repaired early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not overtighten taps
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire basin
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NP20 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
