Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Do you need sink repair in Woodside?
Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
People usually call us after spotting something like this:
- Crazing in the glaze
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- A chipped basin edge
- Cracks starting at the waste
Comparing quotes
- What aftercare is recommended
- When it can be used again
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How changes to the job are handled
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- 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.
- Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
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.

Repairing versus replacing in Woodside
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

FAQs for Woodside
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
