About our sink repair in Spike Island
We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. Nothing is taken off the wall. Our technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people get in touch are cracks starting at the waste and crazing in the glaze.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
FAQs for Spike Island
Can you repair a cracked basin?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you cover the entire of Bristol?
All of Bristol, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Landlord and trade work in Spike Island
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Spike Island. What changes the price is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
