If the whole basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. Common call-outs are for cracks starting at the waste and crazing in the glaze, across vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- 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.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Get chips repaired early
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
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 the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
Common questions in Rostherne
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Do you need sink repair in Rostherne?
Fine crazing in the glaze is normally down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Belfast and butler sinks
