Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Westwood. What changes the price is:
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.
How to get a fixed price
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use gentle cleaners
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
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 water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Should you replace it?
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Questions from Westwood
Do you come to Westwood?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Westwood from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
