Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Belle Vue: your questions answered
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Belle Vue included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
What affects the price in Belle Vue
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after 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.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Get a quote
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t overtighten taps
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
When a repair is not the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Plumbing leaks
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
When to call us in Belle Vue
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A chipped basin edge
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Cracks starting at the waste
- A crazed, tired basin
