Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Should you replace it?
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why us?
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Fixed prices from your photos
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- We leave the room as we found it

What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Questions from Biggar
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Normally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know which floor the room is on

- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
