How we handle sink repair in Widemarsh
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is normally repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We are often asked to fix fine cracks across the glaze and cracks around the tap holes or waste, in Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaks from the fittings
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Widemarsh. The price reflects:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
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.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use mild cleaners only
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
