How we handle sink repair in The Hyde
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We’re frequently asked to fix chips on the rim or front edge and a chipped vanity basin, on vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repairing versus replacing in The Hyde
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in The Hyde
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for The Hyde. The price reflects:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A photo taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NW9 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Questions from The Hyde
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Frequently. Send us photos and we will tell you.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
When to call us in The Hyde
Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Crazing in the glaze
- A chipped vanity basin
- Chips around the rim
