The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the area is dry

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Through cracks that let water out
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
Why repair rather than replace?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Tockwith. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Colour-matched on site
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- One price list for the whole UK

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
