Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Get chips repaired early
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use mild cleaners only
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Questions from Alport
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you work in Alport?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Alport and the rest of Derbyshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Alport?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Widespread crazing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Alport
- Antique & period basins

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
