About our sink repair in Witton
Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Common call-outs are for cracks starting at the waste and a chipped basin edge, in enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
Other services in Witton
Signs you need sink repair in Witton
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- An original basin worth saving
- A crack near the taps
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Fine cracks across the glaze
Before booking anyone
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
What we cannot put right
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Through cracks that let water out
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
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, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Your questions about sink repair in Witton
Do you cover Witton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Witton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can generally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
