Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Burnaston
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.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Burnaston use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
What else we do in Burnaston
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use mild cleaners only
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can

What we can’t put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Are there extra charges for Burnaston?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Frequently. Send us pictures and we will tell you.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
What you get with us
