Sink repair in Bourton, done in place
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are damage to a basin in a vanity unit and chips around the rim.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dorset.

When we would advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Through cracks that let water out
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Questions from Bourton
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Frequently. Send us photos and we will tell you.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Repair or replace in Bourton?
Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- One price list for the entire UK
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Landlord and trade work in Bourton
For anyone letting property in or around Bourton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
What affects the price in Bourton
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Bourton. What changes the price is:
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- One picture of the whole basin
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Common problems we fix in Bourton
Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, and some happen during bathroom refits.
Look out for any of the following:
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- A chipped vanity basin
- A crack near the taps
Before booking anyone
- How your room will be protected
