The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.

How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Repair chips before they stain
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Repairing versus replacing in Boston Spa
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
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.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
When to call us in Boston Spa
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Chips around the rim
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Chips on a built-in basin

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Boston Spa. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
