Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Common problems we fix in Amberley
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- A chipped vanity basin
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- A crazed, tired basin
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How changes to the job are handled
- What prep work is covered
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use mild cleaners only
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Repair chips before they stain
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the following day.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
