Sink repair in Bourton, done in place
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. We work on enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are a chipped basin edge and crazing in the glaze.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Bourton as everywhere else we work.

What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Bourton

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
When to call us in Bourton
Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A chipped basin edge
- A crazed, tired basin
- An antique basin with chips
Before you book anyone
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What prep work is covered
- Who turns up on the day
- What protection goes down before work starts

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use mild cleaners only
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
