How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use mild cleaners only
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
When to call us in Wasps Nest
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

Your questions about sink repair in Wasps Nest
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you come to Wasps Nest?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Wasps Nest. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Typically, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Wasps Nest. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
