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.
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 usually cheaper.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Butterley use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
How it works
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice
Butterley: your questions answered
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Butterley.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Why repair rather than replace?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
