Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- A fixed quote before you book
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shuttleworth as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Shuttleworth. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Widespread crazing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your BL0 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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 generally cheaper.
When to call us in Shuttleworth
Fine crazing in the glaze is usually down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Crazing in the glaze
- Chips from dropped toiletries
What to look for in a quote
- How to care for the finish
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Who will actually do the work
- How soon you can use it again
