Sink repair in Aythorpe Roding without replacing anything
We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Typical jobs include damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and a crack near the taps, on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Aythorpe Roding and across Essex.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaks from the fittings
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a couple of hours for most chips from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Landlord and trade work in Aythorpe Roding
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CM6 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
