Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
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.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Spot Acre
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Common questions in Spot Acre
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can generally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use gentle cleaners
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
