We are frequently asked to fix a crazed, tired basin and cracks around the tap holes or waste, on Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

Questions from Snittongate
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you cover Snittongate?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Snittongate for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can typically be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Repair or replace in Snittongate?

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
