How we handle sink repair in Bengeo
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. Common call-outs are for chips on the rim or front edge and an original basin worth saving, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Bengeo and across Hertfordshire.

When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Plumbing leaks
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use mild cleaners only
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
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.
What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
