Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Signs you need sink repair in Seaton
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Crazing in the glaze
- An original basin worth saving
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
What to look for in a quote
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What preparation is included
- Who will actually do the work
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Repair chips before they stain
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not 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 the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Widespread crazing
- A basin that moves on its brackets
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
