How we handle sink repair in Barnham Broom
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. Our repair technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are chips around the rim and chips from dropped toiletries.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

FAQs for Barnham Broom
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim

- Avoid abrasive pads
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
