- Repairs from £95
- A chipped vanity basin
- Chips from dropped toiletries
What your basin is made of matters
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. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
How we handle sink repair in West Burton
Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most often call us about crazing in the glaze and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

West Burton: your questions answered
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Frequently. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for West Burton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
For most jobs, pictures 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.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around West Burton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Do you need sink repair in West Burton?
Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- An original basin worth saving

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Get chips repaired early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 often lifts.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Plumbing leaks
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
