About our sink repair in Turvey
Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Whether it’s knocks from hair straighteners and an original basin worth saving, we can typically put it right, on antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins alike.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can generally be used later that day or the following day.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Related advice
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
When to call us in Turvey
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- An original basin worth saving

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Turvey customers choose us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- One visit for most repairs

Questions from Turvey
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
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.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Turvey. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
We price from photos so you do not 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’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Have new chips repaired quickly
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
