From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are crazing in the glaze and cracks starting at the waste.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Slattocks. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Advice
FAQs for Slattocks
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your M24 postcode.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do you cover Slattocks?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Slattocks. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
What we cannot put right
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaks from the fittings
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Should you replace it?
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
