Sink repair in Walston, done in place
We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. If you are dealing with a chipped vanity basin and knocks from hair straighteners, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Advice
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Walston. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire basin
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
What we cannot put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Widespread crazing
- Plumbing leaks
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use mild cleaners only
- Get chips repaired early
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

For landlords and businesses
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.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Your questions about sink repair in Walston
Are there extra charges for Walston?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you work in Walston?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Walston from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
