- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.

Advice
Common questions in Bolton
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Are there extra charges for Bolton?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you come to Bolton?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Bolton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Landlord and trade work in Bolton
If you manage property in Bolton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Get chips repaired early
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

When we would advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Bolton
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Repair or replace: which is better?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
