The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Get chips repaired early
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Signs you need sink repair in Shelfanger
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

- A crazed, tired basin

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shelfanger use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
For anyone letting property in or around Shelfanger, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Shelfanger. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire basin
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job without visiting.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Plumbing leaks
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
