Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Repairing versus replacing in Yorkletts
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

When a repair is not the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Yorkletts. The price reflects:
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Get chips repaired early
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Do not overtighten taps
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Yorkletts questions
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do you cover Yorkletts?
We do. We send a technician to Yorkletts for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Yorkletts and the rest of Kent. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
