DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Sink repair at your home in Barton-le-Clay
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. Typical jobs include a period basin that needs restoring and chips from dropped toiletries, across enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a couple of hours for most chips, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Barton-le-Clay: your questions answered
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
When to call us in Barton-le-Clay
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Knocks from hair straighteners
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How long it needs to cure
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Barton-le-Clay use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use mild cleaners only
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
