Sink Repair for Bilstone homes
Sink repair across Bilstone and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Knocks from hair straighteners
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Bilstone and nearby
Bilstone is about 7 miles south-west of Coalville, in Leicestershire. We agree a date that works for you, and we’ll give you an arrival time in advance, so you’re not left waiting in all day. We cover all 287 towns and villages in Leicestershire, from the larger towns to small villages. Our jobs stretch from Bilstone to Birmingham (22 miles away).
Our technicians cover all of CV13. That includes homes on Main Road, Mill Lane and Gibbet Lane and the roads around them.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Bilstone, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What affects the price in Bilstone
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire basin
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Most clients in Bilstone get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
When to call us in Bilstone
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A crazed, tired basin
- A chipped basin edge
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- A period basin that needs restoring
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How to look after the finish
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Common questions in Bilstone
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Do you cover Bilstone?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Bilstone from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaks from the fittings
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
