How we handle sink repair in Abbott Street
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. We are frequently asked to fix cracks starting at the waste and crazing in the glaze, across enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What else we do in Abbott Street
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Abbott Street as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Repair chips before they stain
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Plumbing leaks
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
Abbott Street questions
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do you cover the entire of Dorset?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Abbott Street. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Common problems we fix in Abbott Street
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A crazed, tired basin
- An antique basin with chips
- Chips around the rim
- Knocks from hair straighteners

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
What affects the price in Abbott Street
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
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.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
