The process
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price

What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china

Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Our sink repair starts from £95.

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use mild cleaners only
- Avoid abrasive pads
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
