Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why book with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- No need to remove anything
- One price list for the entire UK
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to South Benfleet. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Plumbing leaks
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Do not overtighten taps
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
