What your basin is made of matters

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Plumbing leaks
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a couple of hours for most chips. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Treharris. The price reflects:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
