What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Avoid abrasive pads
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
What we cannot put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaks from the fittings
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
