The process
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean the basin and check 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.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Sink repair at your home in Sutton
If the whole basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. If you are dealing with cracks starting at the waste and a chipped basin edge, we can usually put it right, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Should you replace it?
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use mild cleaners only
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
