DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Signs you need sink repair in Asheldham

- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A crack near the taps

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use mild cleaners only
- Get chips repaired early
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

Why repair rather than replace?

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
