Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Repair chips before they stain
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
FAQs for Yscir
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
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.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Signs you need sink repair in Yscir
Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, along with damage during fitting.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- An original basin worth saving
- A chipped basin edge
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Fine cracks across the glaze
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- When it can be used again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaks from the fittings
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
