About our sink repair in Rushop
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. If you are dealing with damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and an original basin worth saving, we can typically put it right.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Rushop as everywhere else we work.

Your questions about sink repair in Rushop
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Generally, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Rushop?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
When we would advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Widespread crazing
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Plumbing leaks
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Rushop, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Related advice
When to call us in Rushop
Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- An original basin worth saving
Questions to ask before booking
- What preparation is included
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- When it can be used again
How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Use mild cleaners only
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Should you replace it?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
