About our sink repair in Tintern
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are a chipped vanity basin and an original basin worth saving.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

What affects the price in Tintern
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Should you replace it?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Tintern

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. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Your questions about sink repair in Tintern
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, and that includes Tintern. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use gentle cleaners
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
