The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice
Sink repair in Shuttington, done in place
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is generally repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Whether it’s fine cracks across the glaze and a crack near the taps, we can typically put it right, on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins alike.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Repair or replace in Shuttington?
A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Widespread crazing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Your questions about sink repair in Shuttington
Are there extra charges for Shuttington?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
In many cases. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
