Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, 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 and leave the character intact.
How we handle sink repair in Aston
Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, matching the colour and gloss. The basin stays on the wall. If you are dealing with a chipped basin edge and knocks from hair straighteners, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Common questions in Aston
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Birmingham.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire basin and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What a repair can’t fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Plumbing leaks
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire basin
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For a price in Aston, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
