Sink repair across Steeple View and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- A chipped vanity basin
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
About our sink repair in Steeple View
We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. The basin stays on the wall. Common call-outs are for knocks from hair straighteners and cracks starting at the waste, across antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Use gentle cleaners
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Get chips repaired early
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Steeple View. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
