Sink repair in The Mint without replacing anything
If the whole basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are knocks from hair straighteners and chips on a built-in basin.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to The Mint. The price comes down to:
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
The Mint questions
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Typically, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What we cannot put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Plumbing leaks
- Widespread crazing
- A basin that moves on its brackets
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
