How we handle sink repair in Tidebrook
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. We work on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most frequently call us about chips from dropped toiletries and a chipped basin edge.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, tidy-up included.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
What we are called out for in Tidebrook
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- A chipped basin edge
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- A chipped vanity basin
What your quote should include
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How long it needs to cure
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether they match the colour on site
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
