Sink repair at your home in Sots Hole
Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We regularly repair antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are cracks around the tap holes or waste and damage to a basin in a vanity unit.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a couple of hours for most chips. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
FAQs for Sots Hole
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Do you come to Sots Hole?
We do. We send a technician to Sots Hole for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you cover the whole of Lincolnshire?
Everywhere in the UK, Sots Hole included. Travel is included in the price.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What affects the price in Sots Hole
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your LN4 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
