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 polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Sink repair in West Wellow without replacing anything
We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. The basin stays on the wall. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and people most often call us about fine cracks across the glaze and chips around the rim.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Questions from West Wellow
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you cover the entire of Hampshire?
We cover the whole UK, including West Wellow and the rest of Hampshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you cover West Wellow?
We do. Repair technicians travel to West Wellow from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
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.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for West Wellow. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole basin
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
When to call us in West Wellow
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Chips around the rim
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Crazing in the glaze
