Sink repair in Yaverland without replacing anything
We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. The basin stays on the wall. We work on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and a crazed, tired basin.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
What else we do in Yaverland
Questions from Yaverland
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Yaverland
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Isle of Wight and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
What a repair can’t fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Repair or replace in Yaverland?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
