What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Hertfordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- One price list for the whole UK
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Signs you need sink repair in Bulstrode

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Bulstrode questions
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Plumbing leaks
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
