Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Shenley Church End. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Repair chips before they stain
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Widespread crazing

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your photos
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Shenley Church End: your questions answered
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Are there extra charges for Shenley Church End?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you cover Shenley Church End?
We do. We send a technician to Shenley Church End for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
