Sink repair in Splatt without replacing anything
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We work on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and a chipped vanity basin.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Questions from Splatt
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can generally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Are there extra charges for Splatt?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Splatt. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire basin
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Get chips repaired early
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing 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 the repair to blend it in.

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
