What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Wold Newton is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Sink repair in Wold Newton without replacing anything
We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. If you have crazing in the glaze and cracks around the tap holes or waste, we can generally put it right, on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.
Somewhere like Wold Newton, an older basin can be hard to match if replaced. A repair keeps everything matching.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Do not overtighten taps
- Use gentle cleaners
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaks from the fittings
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
Why repair rather than replace?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Replacement in Wold Newton means trades, travel and waste removal, while a repair is a single visit.
Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
