What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Bamford: your questions answered
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price. There’s no obligation to book.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Should you replace it?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Widespread crazing
- Through cracks that let water out
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
