Why repair rather than replace?
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Swettenham Heath. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

- Usually one visit, start to finish
- No extra charge for your area

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a couple of hours for most chips.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Common problems we fix in Swettenham Heath
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
Common reasons people in Swettenham Heath contact us are:
- A crazed, tired basin
- An antique basin with chips
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Chips from dropped toiletries
Questions to ask before booking
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Who will actually do the work
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
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 and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
