Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Whether it’s an antique basin with chips and cracks around the tap holes or waste, we can typically put it right, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins alike.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Store toiletries on a shelf
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 it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

- A crack near the taps
- Knocks from hair straighteners

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Sands End. The price comes down to:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
