About our sink repair in Austendike
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is normally repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are a chipped vanity basin and a crack near the taps.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

What else we do in Austendike
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
If you are in Austendike and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
