How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Do not overtighten taps
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a couple of hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Burniston
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Burniston. What changes the price is:
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the whole basin
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
