Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Use gentle cleaners
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Plumbing leaks
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
