Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Do not overtighten taps
- Use gentle cleaners
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Sink repair at your home in Weston Mill
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. Whether it’s damage to a basin in a vanity unit and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools, we can usually put it right, on Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins alike.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Repair or replace in Weston Mill?
A new basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- Colour-matched on site
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Everything repaired in place

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 polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Common questions in Weston Mill
Is a crack in a basin repairable?

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can I add another job to the visit?

Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
