DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Sink repair at your home in Broadstreet Common

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. Common call-outs are for chips around the rim and cracks starting at the waste, on vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Newport and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
