Questions from Sandy Lane
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Common problems we fix in Sandy Lane
Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, along with damage during fitting.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- An antique basin with chips
- Chips on a built-in basin
Questions to ask before booking
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How long it needs to cure
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
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.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Leaks from the fittings
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Repair or replace in Sandy Lane?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
