How we handle sink repair in Bixley
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. If you are dealing with a chipped vanity basin and a crazed, tired basin, we can help, on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins alike.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Through cracks that let water out
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What happens on the day
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Bixley. The price reflects:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
