If the entire basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. If you are dealing with a period basin that needs restoring and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools, we can normally put it right, on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins alike.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Repair chips before they stain
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
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.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Your questions about sink repair in Youlthorpe
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.
