Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Common problems we fix in Scarcliffe
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
Common reasons people in Scarcliffe contact us include:
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Chips around the rim
- Crazing in the glaze
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit

When a repair is not the answer

- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Your questions about sink repair in Scarcliffe
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you work in Scarcliffe?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Scarcliffe and the rest of Derbyshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed quote.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Should you replace it?
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, 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.
