When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Widespread crazing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
When to call us in Wyllie
Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- A crack near the taps
- A chipped basin edge
Comparing quotes
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- When it can be used again

- Whether the colour is mixed to match
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Wyllie. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Most customers in Wyllie get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Your questions about sink repair in Wyllie
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you come to Wyllie?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Wyllie for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use gentle cleaners
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a couple of hours for most chips. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
