Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use mild cleaners only
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaks from the fittings

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Colour mixed on the day to match

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Your questions about sink repair in Woodseats
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can tenants book a repair?

Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
What affects the price in Woodseats
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SK13 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
