- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Repair chips before they stain
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why book with us
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- No extra charge for your area
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Plumbing leaks
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Your questions about sink repair in Aperfield
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
