What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How we handle sink repair in Ridgeway View
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. We regularly repair antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and people most often call us about a chipped vanity basin and chips around the rim.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use mild cleaners only
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

When to call us in Ridgeway View
Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.
The things clients normally mention when they call are:
- An antique basin with chips
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Chips on a built-in basin
Questions to ask before you book
- How long it needs to cure
- What preparation is included
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How changes to the job are handled
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What happens on the day
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
