Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Get chips repaired early
- Avoid abrasive pads
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Signs you need sink repair in Rise Park
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- An antique basin with chips
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Chips around the rim
Before you book anyone
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What happens if they find more damage
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

Repair or replace in Rise Park?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Common questions in Rise Park
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Generally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
